I compiled lirc 0.8.2 and removed the liblircclient0 package.  I
recompiled myth and verified it has the new libs linked:

root at macmini:~/mythtv# ldd /usr/local/bin/mythfrontend  | grep lirc
        liblirc_client.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/liblirc_client.so.0 (0xb5e1c000)


Still no lirc in mythfrontend.
