[PKGBUILD] linux-uvc

kernel module for newer Logitech webcams, see http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ .

Note: to build it you need configured kernel sources with valid symlink to them at /lib/modules/_YOUR_KERNEL_VERSION_/build

PKGBUILD:

pkgname=uvcvideo
pkgver=rev75
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A kernel module to support UVC compliant USB video devices."
url="http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/"
depends=()
install=uvcvideo.install
source=(http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk/{Makefile,uvc{video.h,_{compat.h,{ctrl,driver,queue,v4l2,video}.c}}})
md5sums=(c93028edc78c41858afaa4c926013ecc 20b105664b7c376c8bc7d24647f6bfcc

build() {
  _kernver=`uname -r`
  cd ${startdir}/src/
  make || return 1
  install -D -m644 uvcvideo.ko ${startdir}/pkg/lib/modules/${_kernver}/kernel/drivers/media/video/usbvideo/uvcvideo.ko
  mkdir -p ${startdir}/pkg/usr/include/linux/uvcvideo
  install -D -m644 *.h ${startdir}/pkg/usr/include/linux/uvcvideo
  sed -i -e "s|_KVER_|${_kernver}|g" ${startdir}/uvcvideo.install
}

uvcvideo.install:

KERNEL_VERSION=_KVER_

# arg 1:  the new package version
post_install()
{
  /sbin/depmod -ae -v $KERNEL_VERSION > /dev/null 2>&1
}

# arg 1:  the new package version
# arg 2:  the old package version
post_upgrade()
{

Actually, PKGBUILD should be submitted to AUR instead of being posted in the forum.

Re: [PKGBUILD] linux-uvc

And why didn't you put `uname -r` in the .install instead of seding it in?

Re: [PKGBUILD] linux-uvc

That source= line gives me the shivers  :shock: and your md5sums will be obsolete with the next upstream commit. Have a look at the Arch CVS/SVN packaging guidelines - they're in the wiki.

Standard practice for kernel module packages sets the _kernver variable to 2.6.19-ARCH outside the build function. Users can change it as required, to build for other kernels.
