If your ~/.lircrc file is the same as the file you deleted in
~/.mythtv/, you can just create a symlink between the existing file
and ~/.mythtv/lircrc, and MythTV should be fine. You do not need two
separate files - I typically create ~/.lircrc with all MythTV,
irxevent, irexec and xine definitions and then create a symlink to
~/.mythtv/lircrc so that MythTV works too. It means I only ever have
one file to edit.

Also, there is no 'correct' lircrc file per se - it's up to each user
to customise the file to their remote and to their preferred way of
controlling MythTV!
