This is the the problem of https://github.com/bengtmartensson/harctoolboxbundle/issues/177

Turns out that the API for /dev/lirc has changed: man lirc(4) says:

   LIRC_GET_REC_MODE
       Return the receive mode, which will be one of:

       LIRC_MODE_MODE2 (void)
              The driver returns a sequence of pulse/space durations.

       LIRC_MODE_LIRCCODE
              The driver returns integer values, each of which  represents
              a decoded button press.

   If  a device returns an error code for LIRC_GET_REC_MODE, it is safe to
   assume it is not a lirc device.

What an API!
