According to upstream's GitHub page DroidCam works with the standard v4l2loopback module, so installing v4l2loopback-dc is optional, so the v4l2loopback-dc-dkms package would probably be better off as an optional dependency that provides V4L2LOOPBACK-MODULE (i.e. what the official v4l2loopback-dkms package provides) which droidcam should then depend on.

@creepergd Hey, when you have a patch for an outdated package it's best to just put it in the comments and wait for one of the maintainers to apply it. Or send them an email if it takes too long.

Change pkgver to

pkgver=2.0.0

@creepergd, no, duplicate packages are forbidden ... Please either update the package locally, wait for it to be updated here or help by maintaining the existing PKGBUILD

Do you guys think that the AUR would accept if I were to copy this script and modify it to have later versions or not? I've never made any significant contributions to a distro or anything FOSS and I wanna start doing that because I love arch lol. I already was able to install 2.0.0 by changing pkgver to 2.0.0 and skipping integ checks because I was too lazy to get the checksums and stuff, but I'll bet I could get that working. I learned some bash scripting in college and I want to put some of that to use.

snd_aloop only needs to be loaded when using Android device as an audio source, no? In the repository the developer even recommends against using this feature. snd_aloop being loaded caused me some issues with a Java application (RuneLite) not playing audio. Perhaps this should be an opt-in as opposed to an opt-out?

version 2.0.0 is released

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

👆🏽 If anyone sees this err, rebuild droidcam. It will work inshaAllah ✅

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.

balwierz commented on 2023-03-22 19:05 (UTC)

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