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.
When running makepkg, I get the following warning:
...
==> Checking for packaging issues...
==> WARNING: backup entry file not in package : etc/modprobe.d/droidcam.conf
...
Could you add v4l2loopback-dkms as an alternative dependency to v4l2loopback-dc-dkms, since either of those packages will do the job?
@invidian Yes that seems to be the cause for my problem. Removing it via modprobe -r snd-aloop brings my internal soundcard back. For now I decided to just remove snd-aloop from /etc/modules-load.d/droidcam.conf and try to use my internal microphone instead of the one of my smartphone.
@patchcard2 perhaps this is because we load snd-aloop kernel module?
For some reason, after installing this package ALSA did not recognize my internal soundcard anymore: snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: cannot find the slot for index 0 (range 0-1), error: -1
@maximbaz thanks for explanation! I replaced ../.. with ${srcdir} then.
@invidian: it fails as hexhu describes when you build in isolated environment in chroot, e.g. install devtools package and run extra-x86_64-build.
I would suggest avoid using relative paths and just use ${srcdir} in place of ../../
@biker The link is correct. We build multiple packages using single repository, as the source of both packages is the same.
@gbc921 did you try loading v4l2loopback or v4l2loopback-dc kernel module? Because the former is indeed provided by "v4l2loopback-dkms" package and the latter is provided by "v4l2loopback-dc-dkms".
