simple: the version of Gem you are using has been compiled without libv4l support. whoever built the package has either not enabled libv4l-support (there is a new flag in Gem's configure called --without-ALL which disables everything so you have to manually re-enable whatever you want; this is meant for package-maintainers so they have better control about what features the package will have) or there was no libv4l-dev installed on the build machine. solutions: - build Gem yourself and make sure that you have all relevant packages installed (in your case, don't forget libv4l-dev) - ask the person who built your package to enable libv4l fgmasdr IOhannes
