[mythtv-users] LIRC help needed with IguanaIR and PACE DC50X

[Brad Fuller]

Thanks mythtv at derdev.com (that can't be your real name)
Your procedure certainly looks great. However, I can't find the ubuntu
source repo that has lirc. See below

it is installed, but so is libusb 0.1.
Will that matter?

that'd be great, but I've been trying to find the source via the repos
and I can't find it.
Do you know where I can find the ubuntu 9.10 repos for the lirce
source? From what I've been finding on google, I should have the repo,
no (I know someone on this list will blast me for not "researching"
enough, but I've been looking for this for an hour and I'm not any
closer. I'm not familiar with Ubuntu at all (gentoo, yes))
