Assuming you mean those installed via rpms/apt:

# rpm -e `rpm -qa | grep lirc`

or

# rpm -qa | grep lirc | xargs rpm -e

(nb: now that I look at it, I think the quotes around the rpm -e part in the 
wiki for myth rpm removal were incorrect, so I just removed them...)

However, I believe you'll get some dependency errors, as some packages depend 
on lirc-lib. You can remove just kernel-module-lirc-`uname -r` and lirc, 
leaving lirc-lib, and install lirc from source without any ill effects 
though, assuming that's what you're aiming to do.

# rpm -e kernel-module-lirc-`uname -r` lirc
