Hi

The default lirc.service isn't optimal. It forces the user to use a driver and device path, or to modify the file in /etc/systemd/. I suggest something like this :

lirc.service
------------
[Unit]
Description=Linux Infrared Remote Control
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
PIDFile=/run/lirc/lircd.pid
RuntimeDirectory=lirc
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/lircd
ExecStart=/usr/bin/lircd --driver=${LIRC_DRIVER} --device=${LIRC_DEVICE} --nodaemon ${LIRC_EXTRAOPTS}

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target


/etc/conf.d/lircd
-----------------
#
# Parameters for lirc daemon
#
LIRC_DEVICE="/dev/usb/hiddev0"
LIRC_DRIVER="macmini"
LIRC_EXTRAOPTS=""
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  0.9.1-1 uses systemd units from upstream.

Orphan, assigning to last two packagers.

If they don't want to maintain, I can maintain this package in AUR.

The next version is going to use the systemd unit files provided by upstream.
