[ubuntu-mythtv] [Bug 129689] lirc install doesn't create working hardware.conf for dev/input devices

[Malcolm Parsons]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: lirc

I upgraded lirc in gutsy and it broke my working lirc install.

I selected "Linux input layer (/dev/input/eventX)", and /etc/lirc/hardware.conf was rewritten with DRIVER="".
It was DRIVER="dev/input" before upgrading.

/usr/share/doc/lirc/lirc.hwdb contains:
Linux input layer (/dev/input/eventX);devinput;none;hw_devinput;<A HREF="http://linux.bytesex.org/v4l2/faq.html#lircd">generic config file for Linux input layer</A>;

Is ";devinput;" a typo for ";dev/input;" ?
