For the love of God can we just get a deb download!

Also, I can't install the generic version in the meantime either. I'm getting 404ed. :/

okay, I'll figure it out. Thanks for letting me know.

@grkblood13 you're using wrong URL for downloading the deb package manually. Try

wget --content-disposition https://packagecloud.io/Flirc/repo/packages/ubuntu/xenial/flirc_3.9.12_amd64.deb/download.deb

The packages are all the same so the one for xenial should still work. To fix the apt source, check /etc/apt/sources.list.d. One of the files there should contain a deb source added by the script. Edit that file and change the release code (artful) to xenial. Then run apt-get update and apt-install flirc again.

Thanks, that worked.

okay, yawor was correct. I don't have a release for that version. I'll get to that. 

You can always override it as well with the following:

wget https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/Flirc/repo/script.deb.sh

os=ubuntu dist=trusty ./script.deb.sh
