  1. I'm trying to upgrade my current FLIRC package using the following command

    rpm -Uhv flirc-1.2.6-2.i386.rpm

    and it produces the following error / conflicts

    Preparing...                          ################################# [100%]
            file / from install of flirc-1.2.6-2.i386 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.2-19.fc20.i686
            file /lib from install of flirc-1.2.6-2.i386 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.2-19.fc20.i686
            file /usr/bin from install of flirc-1.2.6-2.i386 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.2-19.fc20.i686
    

    is this the latest and is there a packaging problem here?

    That's the latest RPM I could find too. It's old and I got the same errors you did. Here's what I did to create a working (and current) version:

    1. Download the latest DEB file that matches your architecture here: http://apt.flirc.tv/arch. For example, for 64 bit at this time that's http://apt.flirc.tv/arch/x64/binary/flirc_1.3.2-1_amd64.deb.
    2. Convert it to an RPM with alien: sudo alien -r flirc_1.3.2-1_amd64.deb
    3. Remove the unnecessary and conflicting entries: rpmrebuild -p --change-spec-files="grep -i flirc" flirc-1.3.2-2.x86_64.rpm

    That command will create a new rpm that should install cleanly and seems to work fine for me. I'm on Fedora 21 64-bit.
