No info, so I assume this is not relevant anymore.

Well in current Gentoo lirc is version 0.9.0 and it doesn't provide pkg-config stuff... i do not know how it is with other distroes... possibly arch is the same...

But current LIRC versions install a pkg-config file. Is it not available in Gentoo?

In some distros (like Gentoo current for example) lirc package doesn't use/install any pkg-config related stuff, so bino cannot find lirc client even if it exists...

Since I am maintaining the bino version in Gentoo's portage, I do apply a patch for the situation that you may find useful....
Actually it uses your code but does one last check before emitting the missing lirc message...

Thanks
