This bug was fixed in the package lirc - 0.8.6-0ubuntu1

---------------
lirc (0.8.6-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  [ Jeremy Yoder ]
  * Update to LIRC 0.8.6 release. (LP: #432678)
    - added support for ENE KB3926 revision B/C/D (ENE0100) CIR port
      (found on some notebooks, e.g: Acer Aspire 5720G, HP Pavilion dv5)
      (Maxim Levitsky)
    - New parameter for lircd: --repeat-max
    - merged 1st-gen mceusb device support into lirc_mceusb2,
      renamed lirc_mceusb2 to lirc_mceusb
    - added support for putting iMON receviers into MCE/RC6 mode
    - added input subsystem mouse device support to iMON driver
    - improved iMON driver to handle dual-interface iMON devices
      via a single lirc device, reducing configuration complexity
    - added support for more iMON devices, including proper support
      for touchscreen iMON devices (Rene Harder)
    - improved iMON driver including touchscreen support
    - Linux input support added to lircmd
    - added support for IT8720 CIR port
    - added support for XMP protocol
  * Cleanup more_remotes.hwdb
  * TODO: Make changes to the "lircd.conf.atiusb" and
    "lircd.conf.hauppauge" files PATCHES instead of duplicates
  * TODO: Submit "lircd.conf.atiusb" and
    "lircd.conf.hauppauge" file patches upstream again
  * Changed lirc init script to create socket in /var/run/lirc/lircd
    as is the new default, but also create a symlink /dev/lircd
    to point to it. This makes all clients happy, old and new.
  * Fix bug in dkms.conf.in, forgot to increment array number
    when adding ene0100 driver.
  * Added the extra "Debian-only" remotes and transmitters back
    in, but in a different way. I created a subdirectory
    "debian/extras" and copy that to /usr/share/lirc/extras.
    This avoids patching the source.
    NOTE: CONFIG FILES IN BOTH LOCATIONS WILL USE THE "extras"
    VERSION. DUPLICATE LINES IN lirc.hwdb AND extras/remotes.hwdb
    WILL USE THE extras/remotes.hwdb VERSION. TRY TO AVOID THIS.
  * Added support to build new ene0100 driver
  * Update debian/lircd.init.d to reflect new default
    PID location in /var/run/lirc
  * Update debian/lircd.init.d to force socket to /dev/lircd
    rather than the new default of /var/run/lirc/lircd
  * Add support for new lirc-extras package to
    debian/lirc.postinst
  * Remove /etc/lircd.conf link to /etc/lirc since
    0.8.6 defaults to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf now
  * Drop 04_man_pages patch, included in upstream
  * Drop 16_lirc-gpio in favor of a sed line in debian/rules
  * Drop 28_irrecord_resume_support - Doesn't work
    according to upstream
  * Drop 36_remove_extra_tekram in favor of a minor
    tweak to debian/lirc.postinst to ignore duplicates
  * Drop extra remote control/transmitter patches, move to lirc-extras:
    - 21_atiusb
    - 22_hauppauge_novat_500
    - 23_remove_md8800
    - 24_freecom_dvbt
    - 26_transmitter_lircd.conf
    - 30_medion_md1_remote
    - 31_hauppauge_hvr_1100
    - 32_radioshack_15_2116_remote
    - 33_asus_mycinema_remote
    - 34_nebula_digitaltv_remote
    - 35_general_deviniput
    - 37_msi_tv_anywhere
    - 38_encore_enltv
  * Cleaned up a few lintian warnings

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * lirc.init.d:
    - Merge a bunch of whitespace cleanup from debian.
  * control:
    - Merge whitespace cleanup from debian.
    - Drop breaks on udev. We don't have any older version of udev in karmic.
  * copyright:
    - Sync from debian.
  * watch:
    - Sync from debian.
  * links:
    - Don't link to a transmitterdb, this should be provided by lirc-extras.
  * rules:
    - Install extra changelog, as mentioned in debian's debian/rules.
  * dkms.conf.in:
    - Drop bashisms. (LP: #445175)
  * lirc.postinst:
    - On upgrades from earlier versions, require the user to reconfigure
      their remote and transmitter.
  * lirc-modules-source.postinst:
    - Update to use the DKMS common postinst template.
