 Did anyone compile kwintv for 7.2 or 8.0?; I had kwintv runing fine for 7.1

 fact are in my system not located...

 There exists a mailing-list for kwintv, but nobody answer the questions.

 My first question is, anyone has reached kwintv to compile for Mandrake
 8.0?, how?

 My second question is, is worth this package?, in fact it seems not so
 different from xawtv; why they haven't put a new release from almost a
 years?

I couldn't get the latest version to compile either, so finally gave up.  I 
liked KWinTV as the UI was far superior to xawtv (and I've never managed to 
get xawtv to work either).  From all appearances, I'd say that developement 
has ceased (or at least on hold for a very long time).

For now, I'm using Zapping, a Gnome app that's quite good and under active 
developement.  The UI has a few glitches, but give it time...

 Any help pl.

The compiler is very strict.  gcc 2.95 would probably allow that with a 
warning and produce buggy code.

Well, now is the time to look at the source or to find someone who knows how 
to look at it.  You have the module name and almost any text editor can 
search for the guilty text.
