OK, this makes sense now. I realized that I had put libgd2-xpm-dev in
the email, but I really only needed libgd2-noxpm-dev. So I just
recursed through the broken dependencies that apt-get had and whenever
I got a message like "Depends: zlib1g (= 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12) but
1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12em1 is to be installed" I would run apt-get specifing
the non em1 version like this "apt-get -f install
zlib1g=1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12". After I was done fswebcam would build with
no problem. Thanks!

Neil,

The script you were talking about. Would that just automate what I did
manually (i.e. check for the dependencies and install the non em1
version)? I think I could handle that, but it sounded like you had
something a little different in mind. I'd be happy to attempt anything
with a little help.

thanks,
Paul
