[ddp] libirman-dev : library for accessing the Irman Infra Red hardware

[daily-debian-package at enix.org]

Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package libirman-dev, which
is part of the libdevel section, and maintained by lirc Maintainer Team
<pkg-lirc-maint at lists.alioth.debian.org>. 

This package contains : library for accessing the Irman Infra Red
hardware.

libirman is a library that allows access to Irman Infra Red hardware from
Linux and other Unix systems.

For general application programming, the preferred interface for infra-red
control is `lirc', as lirc supports multiple programs sharing the same
infra-red receiver.  It does this by providing a socket based interface to
which several programs can connect.

lirc uses libirman to interface with the Irman Infra Red hardware, so in
single use applications directly using libirman is simpler and uses less
system resources.  Currently, lirc only works on Linux systems, so programs
written using libirman directly are more portable.

NOTE: This debian package is mainly provided so that Irman support can be
enabled in lirc package and there is no libirman0 because upstream doesn't
build a shared library.
