Git repository

LIRC is hosted at SourceForge. You can browse the repository or get a copy of the current source tree using git.

Get the sources:

    git clone git://lirc.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/lirc/lirc

Subsequent updates:

    git pull

Compile:

    cd lirc
    ./autogen.sh
    ./setup.sh
    make

You can ignore the complaints about missing files. You need at least libtool-1.5.22, automake-1.9.6 and autoconf-2.61 to build the necessary files. Older versions might not work. But you might also experience problems with more recent versions of the tools. Please don't report problems that occur with versions other than listed here.

Up to version 0.8.7 LIRC was using CVS. The LIRC CVS repository is not maintained anymore.
