droidcam is ok also with v4l2loopback-dkms (community) instead v4l2loopback-dc-dkms ?

Easy fix for manjaro.

Sorry, I haven't had a working laptop for a bit now, so even though I can probably update and fix the package, I don't have a reliable was to build and test it at the moment. I am reading the comments here about it though.

Hmm, perhaps splitting out one more package, namely "droidcam-cli" would be a way to go here then. So "droidcam" can depend on all GUI-related libraries. This will still allow people to install CLI-only version. What do you think?

I agree with @s1lv3r this package fails without libappindicator-gtk3.

I believe libappindicator-gtk3 should be added to the required deps instead of the optional deps

JLSalvador commented on 2021-05-04 09:01 (UTC)

This new version requires app-indicator.h from the package libappindicator-gtk3.

The only way to make droidcam work at first shot and without need to worry about anything is this: https://www.dev47apps.com/droidcam/linuxx/ Follow instructions and it'll take less than one minute (download included)

I believe linux-headers should be added as dependency.

@lorcap see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DKMS_package_guidelines#Dependencies why headers should not be in dependencies.

==> WARNING: backup entry file not in package : etc/modprobe.d/droidcam.conf

This seems indeed like a bug. This file should only be backed up for v4l2loopback-dc-dkms package, not for both of them.

I believe linux-headers should be added as dependency.

It took me a while to figure out why droidcam complained about a missing kernel module despite the package compilation and installation succeeded. Then I reinstalled the package and noticed the following error:

==> Unable to install module v4l2loopback-dc/1.7.2 for kernel *: Missing kernel headers.

which I fixed by installing linux-headers.
