Description Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-02-22 19:33:55 UTC
media-libs/libv4l-0.6.1 was added to the tree in early September 2009. There are no bugs reported about its functionality. It fixes numerous errors for various webcam models. Please mark it stable.

In addition, please add the 32-bit version of libv4l-0.6.1 to app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-medialibs. Current versions of emul-linux-x86-medialibs appear to include libv4l-0.5.*, which does not support a number of newer webcams, and as a result, users are reporting that they cannot get skype video working correctly (see the last comments in bug 240090).

Comment 3 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-03-21 12:56:31 UTC
x86@: please do this bug, to ensure next set of emul- packages for amd64 get built with the updated version, since stable x86 packages are used for that
