I don't know about Debian, but in other distros that would indicate a lack
of the "-dev" packages, perhaps of the kernel or other system sytem
components.

linux/config.h is deprecated. Just touch the file and try and build or
replace all instances calling to it with linux/autoconf.h (this
includes CHECKSUM_HW and CHECKSUM_PARTIAL).

I copied config.h from Debian Etch installation:
----------------
#ifndef _LINUX_CONFIG_H
#define _LINUX_CONFIG_H
/* This file is no longer in use and kept only for backward
compatibility.
* autoconf.h is now included via -imacros on the commandline
*/
#include <linux/autoconf.h>
#endif
----------------
I copied it here:
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.26-1-686/include/linux/config.h
/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.26/include/linux/config.h

Any ideas which "-dev" package I need to install?

What files did you mention, I can not see?

The opposite. Copy autoconf.h over to config.h

Any file calling config.h, including (especially) CHECKSUM_HW and
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, if they exist. That is supposed to be an older bug,
too. What version are you trying to compile again?
I will elaborate. Linux kernels > 2.6.18 have removed the
<linux/config.h> include file and replaced it with <linux/autoconf.h>,
so the LIRC kernel modules no longer compile. Therefore, you need to
replace any calls to linux/config.h to linux/autoconf.h.
Newer Lirc _should_ fix this bug (else you shouldn't be seeing that
specific error anyway). I don't use this myself, so I'm trying to
offer my help with it, but I do know that this problem exists due to
the above reason.
Yvan
> What version are you trying to compile again?
I tried with two versions. First with the one that came with Debian
Lenny (5.0.0) that has lirc-modules source 0.8.3-3. When you install it
it creates /usr/src/lirc-modules.tar.bz2 Unpacking that file produces a
tree in /usr/src/modules/lirc-modules/
Then you do:
# m-a prepare
# m-a a-i lirc
but I get this error:
http://www.ptt.rs/korisnici/i/v/ivica/carb/lirc-error1.txt
Second version is downloaded from http://www.lirc.org/ and it is
lirc-0.8.4a.tar.bz2
When I do make I get:
http://www.ptt.rs/korisnici/i/v/ivica/carb/lirc-error2.txt
And I am stuck now.

Those errors are related to functions and files that have been removed
or renamed in recent kernels (2.6.26 and later).
There is a cvs snapshot of lirc 0.8.5 (dated 2009-02-15) which should
have the appropriate updates:
<http://www.lirc.org/software/snapshots/lirc-0.8.5pre1.tar.bz2>
Or get the current cvs tree by following the instructions at:

I already found lirc-0.8.5pre1.tar.bz2, and it did not help, I also
tried with CVS version and:
http://www.ptt.rs/korisnici/i/v/ivica/carb/lirc-error3.txt
It seems that you need to patch and build your own kernel (with this:
http://www.lirc.org/software/snapshots/lirc-bttv-linux-2.6.24.patch
I tried this also, but I was not able to boot with my new kernel, so I
gave up, and returned back to Debian etch. I do not know if this will
be fixed soon (or ever), but I will try again later.
Thank you for your help.

That is odd. I wonder if there's an old install or some headers that
are in another path for a different or older install that are being
picked up? Anyway, that's interesting that it didn't give you a
working build. Keep us updated if you find out if there was a problem
or find another build does work.

Could be, I do not know, I just do not have the time and knowledge to
find what the problem is.

I do not think that the patch I applied is to blame for the kernel that
will not boot. Firstly I did not add --initrdimg option, and it stooped
booting almost immediately, than I did, but it stopped again after a
while, so I decided that it is not worth bothering any more, and went
back to working Debian etch installation.
I will try again when I have more time, and if I find the solution, I'll
post here.

Yeah, if you ever get the time and motivation to check into it, but I'd
be curious about the kernel not booting if you didn't include it at
that time (I missed that part of the post, I guess). Anyway, another
day.
