Hi @balwierz!

Not everyone uses linux-headers, could be linux-lts-header, linux-zen-headers, or any other flavor. This dependency can not be hard-coded.

This package should depend on linux-headers, otherwise it does not build

There are not any problem with the package, and it is not maintainer's responsibility to update anything. Please, don't flag this package as obsolete when it is not. The current last version is 1.8.2, so as this AUR.

As you can see in the wiki, it is your responsibility (final user, not the maintainer) to rebuild all your AUR packages when a dependency is updated:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_and_upgrading_packages

Note: The AUR is unsupported, so any packages you install are your responsibility to update, not pacman's. If packages in the official repositories are updated, you will need to rebuild any AUR packages that depend on those libraries.

ffmpeg was updated, so you need to rebuild the droidcam package in the same way that you installed it the first time; if you are using a helper tool as yay, just remove the cache (rm -r ~/.cache/yay/droidcam), and then reinstall the package.

I'm sorry, but I'm no longer going to reply to things that are already documented on the wiki.

@HurricanePootis I understand I shouldn't have done that and it won't happen again but even that didn't make the maintainers to check the issue

@berkersal please do not use out-of-date flag to say something that could've been left as a comment

@TechXero: I had the same problem. I uninstalled droidcam and installed it via the guide from the developer https://www.dev47apps.com/droidcam/linux/

@JLSalvador How ? Command ?

JLSalvador commented on 2023-03-11 15:28 (UTC)

@TechXero, just reinstall droidcam to force a rebuild with the new dependencies versions. Everything working fine here after the rebuild.

error

droidcam: error while loading shared libraries: libswscale.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Needs to be updated against ffmpeg 6.0 and libwscale.so7
