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://git.code.sf.net/p/lirc/git lirc
 

Subsequent updates:

 git pull
 

Compile:

 cd lirc
 ./autogen.sh
 ./configure
 make
 

You need updated versions of libtool, automake and autoconf to build the necessary files. Old versions might not work.

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