I'm just going to assume that's a tyop ;)

And now onto your error message:

And Rob's advice:

Before taking Rob's advice, just try apt-get install
lirc-modules-source, it'll configure and compile it for you, which may
be of great help depending on how experienced you are with these things.

hope that helps,
