| raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I just submitted https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=228102 This has a patch to Makefile adding a WEBCAMD option which allows multimedia/webcamd to be built without forcing a run time depend on the long obsolete multimedia/pwcbsd which it then doesn't use. I left the PWCBSD option in place and unchanged but unless someone has a sentimental attachment to the PWCBSD option it should probably be removed. It does no harm so I left it. An advantage of this patch, besides avoiding building and installing the pwcbsd.ko kernel module and in doing so requiring kernel source to be present, is it avoids a conflict with the multimedia/pwcview port. pwcview provides a nice simple way to test support for a camera before using motion to do the real work.
