I'm sorry to hear that. However, mjpegtools entered the archive during the wheezy freeze so was never part of any Debian release. That also means that liblavrec was never built and the bug isn't an regression from a previous version in the archive. So I'm lowering the serverity accordingly and retitle the bug to reflect the state of this bug, i.e that liblavrec needs to be ported to the V4L2 API. There is a thread at [1] containing some work on a port to V4L2. And then there is also a patch at [2] using liv4l1 to access V4L2 devices.
