[Pkg-lirc-maint] Bug#429249: lirc-modules-source: Badly documented, doesn't work

[Nathanael Nerode]

Package: lirc-modules-source
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

This package is pretty much completely worthless on etch.  If I follow the 
instructions from dpkg-reconfigure-source, or the instructions in the README,
it builds some modules (with the wrong extension -- .o instead of .ko) and 
installs them in the wrong place (/lib/modules/usr/src/<something>), and even if 
they're moved to the right place and renamed modprobe still can't find them.

If I'm supposed to use some other method to build and install the modules, you 
need to document it!  Until then this package is broken: hence the 'grave' severity.
