Description of problem:

Since Kodi 18 it is not possible to set a custom Lirc socket location in the cmake configuration.

The current spec file tries to do that, disabling Lirc as a result:

In line 344:

       -DENABLE_LIRCCLIENT=%{_var}/run/lirc/lircd \

But this variable only admits the values ON, OFF or AUTO. If lirc is found, Kodi will listen the lirc socket at /var/run/lirc/lircd. This can be overridden using  the environment variable LIRC_SOCKET_PATH.

After running the %cmake command, the output shows:

-- LIRCCLIENT enabled: No

After replacing the value with:

       -DENABLE_LIRCCLIENT=ON \

The cmake output shows

-- Found LircClient: /usr/lib64/liblirc_client.so 

...

-- #---- CONFIGURATION ----#

...

-- LIRCCLIENT enabled: Yes




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kodi-18.3-2
lirc-0.10.1-7

How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Kodi 18.2
2. Install Lirc 0.10.1
3. Set up a remote control to be used as a lirc device (checked with irw)
4. Open Kodi
5. Push any button on the remote control.
6. No actions is rendered in Kodi.
7. Find out the lirc socket path: /run/lirc/lircd or /var/run/lirc/lircd (kodi's expected path).
8. run kodi as: LIRC_SOCKET_PATH=/path/to/socket kodi
9. Push buttons and nothing happens.
