Possibly, but iot works with the BW cam.

WHAT usrland stuff ?? the only thing we have in ports is the cqcam
bloatware, I've no need to bring in tcl and shit just to take a
couple of pictures (if it even works with the BW cam)...

I still think that removal is wrong, and it *could* have been warned
about beforehand. I can now spend a couple of hours to bring back
my app to working state after an update of the system where the
driver disappeared :( :(

Oh, well, time is plenty at hand, NOT!...
