LIRC 0.8.3 package

[Daniel Klaffenbach]

Hello,

as I promised on freewrt-users I tried to compile LIRC for FreeWRT 1.0.3. The
result can be found here:

http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~klada/freewrt/lirc_0.8.3-1_mipsel.ipk
http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~klada/freewrt/lirc-0.8.3-freewrt.tar.gz

Note:
* The ipk is for Asus WL500gP with lirc_serial support
* You may build LIRC with any driver (just set FWRT_LIRC_DRIVER), but I have
only compiled it with packard_bell (didn't work because lirc_serial does not
work with USB-to-Serial dongle - found that out too late :( ).
* No device nodes are being created for now
* To compile you either have to set mknod suid root or you have to be root for
building lirc. Sorry for this, but it is just quick-and-dirty.
* I only patched lirc_serial.c - I simply did not try the others.

Can anbody tell me how to create and copy device nodes (maybe with the
Makefile) without being root?
