Details

I have an IRMAN infrared receiver device. For it to work with LIRC, the LIRC package must be compiled with libirman installed. When this is done LIRC will add the 'irman' driver to the package. Please update lirc and lirc-utils to require libirman before compile. (actually, I think only lirc-utils must be updated since you do not not a kernel module with 'irman' driver) I have created a PKGBUILD file for libirman, feel free to use it.

Reason for closing:  Deferred
Additional comments about closing:  Now a year later, it seems nobody wants to maintain libirman.

Hmm. The thing is there's no package for libirman yet.

I'll consider doing this longer term, but it means taking on another package to maintain. If someone else were to maintain libirman in extra, I'd compile it in immediately.
