What version where you updating from?


it was 0.9.4c-4 and yes, I needed to change my configs with upgrading to
0.9.4xxx some weeks ago.

OK, that should rule out a lot of things...

This is just weird. This file is part of the lirc package:

$ dpkg -c lirc_0.9.4c-6_amd64.deb | grep lircd.conf.dist
-rw-r--r-- root/root  [...]  ./etc/lirc/lircd.conf.dist

Have you any idea why this file is missing by you? The same goes for the missing devinput.lircd.conf:

$ dpkg -c lirc_0.9.4c-6_amd64.deb | grep devinput.lircd.conf
-rw-r--r-- root/root  [...] ./etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf


- Configuration Files:

/etc/lirc/lirc_options.conf changed:

This shouldn't change on an update from -4. Yes, indeed, it's missing
is conffiles. Will fix, but it looks you have updated this so it's OK (?) This is probably not the cause of your problem as long as the /dev/input/myremote device exists and works OK.

/etc/lirc/lircd.conf changed:
include "lircd.conf.d/*.conf"

This looks bad. lirc is not supposed to touch an existing lircd.conf on an update, just to create it if it does not exist. Did you have a /etc/lirc/lircd.conf before upgrading to -5?

/etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf [Errno 2] Datei oder Verzeichnis 
nicht gefunden: u'/etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf'

This might be the culprit. Since you are using the devinput driver it needs the devinput.lircd.conf.

If you have a /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf.dist you could just copy it to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd. Otherwise, the lirc-make-devinput script can create a new and possibly better file using something like

  # lirc-make-devinput > /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf

However, the core issue is why it's not there, see above.



Cheers!
