Bug#229537: linux-kernel-headers: Building v4l?2? programs, general ioctl problem.



"or I get struct time problems." I think this was fixed with the
linux-kernel-headers pkg.  As for the [1]BINARY interface changing it
defenatly is a kernel bug, for v4l1.  I will try with another v4l app too
give you something too test.  In the mean time you may create a small app
that just sets the window size in main.
