Comment #1 is wrong... sorry for that. Pressed <enter> by mistake. zbar package suffered lots of upstream changes, including improvements at interlaces 2/5 and some new codes added. Also, it currently uses an old incomplete implementation for v4l1/v4l2 API. Instead, the better is to port it to libv4l, and support all webcams. A fix is needed for it to compile on Fedora 14+ (and el6), due to a new "reserved" word at stdio.h: dprintf. A fix for it is at: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3128538&group_id=189236&atid=928517 I did the patches for it, and submitted them to zbar upstream, at: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3128542&group_id=189236&atid=928517
Created attachment 464907 [details] Update zbar to latest commit upstream Add a patch with upstate to hg changelog 617889f8f73 - Don't use glibc reserved dprintk (conflicts with stdio.h) - Don't use -Werror, as there are some warnings at the building
Created attachment 464908 [details] Convert zbar to use libv4l This patch removes v4l1 direct support, and replaces v4l2.c function to use libv4l.
Created attachment 464917 [details] Fix build with koji This patch is needed in order to allow koji to properly build zbar.
