Description Michal Schmidt 2015-09-09 06:59:50 UTC
Description of problem:
udev reports an error:
systemd-udevd[548]: specified group 'lirc' unknown

The 'lirc' group is referenced in /lib/udev/rules.d/60-lirc.rules:
KERNEL=="lirc[0-9]*", SUBSYSTEM=="lirc", GROUP="lirc", MODE="0660"

But no such group exists.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -qa lirc\*
lirc-core-0.9.3-4.fc23.x86_64
lirc-libs-0.9.3-4.fc23.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot.
2. journalctl -b -p err -u systemd-udevd
3.

Actual results:
Error about missing lirc group reported.

Expected results:
No errors.

Additional info:
There is a %pre scriptlet in lirc.spec, but this does not end up in any of the built binary packages (there is no %files section for the main package, there are only subpackages). Should the scriptlet belong to 'lirc-core'?

By the way, should lirc-libs really Require lirc-core (instead of the other way around)?
