Comment 15 for bug 306346

@Mircea:

Thanks for the clarification - the scope of this bug is limited to step 1 only, since with the debdiff fixes I've posted above the package will once again work for everyone whereas currently it fails as it stands. (E.g. the package is broken in the repositories.)

Can I get a sponsor for the jaunty debdiff to fix the DKMS module building in lirc-modules-source?

** OFF TOPIC **

However, I assume you're trying to add support for the Antec Fusion Remote, as am I by attempting to build a cvs package. A really hacky-unrecommended way to do that is to follow the guide you're following and don't replace that file. The make and make install you ran in the cvs tree for lirc will have installed lirc drivers into /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc (or similar) IIRC - simply copy those over the ones in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/dkms/ (and depmod -ae, just incase). If you then modprobe -r lirc_imon lirc_dev and then modprobe lirc_imon) you should find it picks up the versions which support the Fusion Remote.... (at least, I did). Like I said, I don't recommend doing this and you'll need to re-make and make install if you upgrade the kernel as well as perform the file copying as described above.... This is why I'm trying to build the lirc package from CVS that'll have all these updates. We shouldn't pollute this bug with more discussion of this, feel free to contact me from my launchpad page - I assume even though I've hidden my e-mail to stop e-mail address harvesting you'll still have the option to contact me!
