Package: libv4l-0 Version: 0.8.5-3 Severity: normal Hi.
To (partly¹) solve the problem of an upside-down video image in Skype (deb from Skype's website) I use the solution documented for example at: * http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=49507 * http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/8262.html i.e. I add "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so" to my ~/.profile and export LD_PRELOAD. Now, this did not work anymore, because the file has been moved to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so I adapted my ~/.profile accordingly, but when trying to preload the library I get: ----8<---- andreas@halucigenia:~$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. ---->8---- Workaround: when creating a symlink (ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l /usr/lib/libv4l) it works again, so it seems some hardcoded path is still pointing to the old location? Kind regards Andreas ---- ¹actually, the "fix" just flips the video image on top, i.e. it is still mirrored, not properly turned by 180°. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libv4l-0 depends on: ii libc6 2.13-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libjpeg8 8c-2 Independent JPEG Group's JPEG runt ii multiarch-support 2.13-10 Transitional package to ensure mul libv4l-0 recommends no packages. libv4l-0 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
