Comment 2 R P Herrold 2009-01-09 23:32:33 UTC 
camera target appears at /dev/video0 but I cannot get that far

It worked ONCE with ekiga, and not I cannot get ekiga to start, so I am rebuilding chain

I need it for testing 'camstream'

        libv4l-devel is needed by camstream-0.26.3-15orc.x86_64

or 'gyachi':

        libv4l-devel is needed by gyachi-1.1.61-1orc.x86_64
        gpgme-devel is needed by gyachi-1.1.61-1orc.x86_64
        libmcrypt-devel >= 2.5.0 is needed by gyachi-1.1.61-1orc.x86_64
        pulseaudio-libs-devel is needed by gyachi-1.1.61-1orc.x86_64
        gtkspell-devel is needed by gyachi-1.1.61-1orc.x86_64
Comment 3 Hans de Goede 2009-01-10 13:12:38 UTC 
This is the cause:
../include/libv4lconvert.h:77: warning: 'struct v4l2_frmsizeenum' declared inside parameter list
../include/libv4lconvert.h:77: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
../include/libv4lconvert.h:82: warning: 'struct v4l2_frmivalenum' declared inside parameter list


Of the failure and that means that your /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h file is pretty old. It definitely is not one from a recent supported Fedora kernel, so I'm closing this.
