What i missed?

[Alec Leamas]

OK... I think understand what's going on... my bad. Stay tuned.

[Alec Leamas]

Could you please try this patch?

As you mentioned before, No reason to apologize! lol

Yup, already reproduced. This is not that trivial, though... Hang on

[Alec Leamas]

OK, got it building without a lirc-devek installed. Please try attached patch

[pylover]

Ah, thanks

[pylover]

That's it, thanks.

[pylover]

It was built successfully, but :

cd /home/vahid/workspace/lirc-git/python-pkg; python3 setup.py -q sdist
Package lirc was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `lirc.pc'

[Alec Leamas]

Seems actually OK. One prerequisite to install that package is to first install lirc. And when you have done that, there is no point installing the pypi package - the lirc package install into something like /usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/lirc. It really depends on ./configure paraneters.

The pypi package is just a reference thing, primarely for a virtualenv. Is that what you are doing?

[pylover]

Yes actually i'm making it to use in venv, so the lirc-git/python-pkg/dist/lirc-0.9.5.tar.gz is exists.

That's ok, thanks a lot,

Another unrelevant question. How could i write codes? which repo?

[pylover]
