libreadline6 is not available in ubuntu, it would be best to update the package to use libreadline8, or libreadline5 which seems to be available still.

This may have been taken care of with 3.25.4 (if I could download the package I would check myself) but if not could you please add it to the todo list for 3.25.5.

The /usr/bin/Flirc gui works just fine, but others may want the command line.

A simple rebuild from the latest sources, seems to resolve the issue for me. 

Can you guys fix this on your end, by repackaging the flirc_util for Ubuntu, with the latest build? (Obviously, with regression testing!).
