This issue seems to be back around.
I'm running a clean install of Mythbuntu 12.04.3 LTS. When I run Flirc (sudo or as myth-user), here's the results that I get:
me@my-myth:~/Flirc-v1.2.2-x64$ ./Flirc
./Flirc: error while loading shared libraries: libQtSvg.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The results from lsusb:
me@my-myth:~/Flirc-v1.2.2-x64$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 019: ID 20a0:0001 Clay Logic
...
The results from flirc_util:
me@my-myth:~/Flirc-v1.2.2-x64$ ./flirc_util version
Warning: cannot open USB deviceWarning: cannot open USB devicedevice disconnected, can't run command
Reading up on my issue, I tripped across a thread elsewhere where the person mentioned that the Flirc dongle & interface still worked on Win vX, so I tried it there & it worked. I was able to load some commands and save the profile. Plugging the Flirc back into the MythBuntu box produced no response; nothing at all.
So what do I do about this to get Flirc (hardware and software) working on this MythTV box?
