autoconfigure? it should be done automatically.

about the manual configuration: is there any reason to do that?

reason?

my cheese image is completenly dark, instead in other program the image is good, not really good but better than all dark

i think i saw that problem already. could you append a screenshot?

wow now i cant compile plus the cheese svn, it complain about glib

Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.15.1' but version of GLib is 2.14.1

i dont think this dipendance is satisfable, I'm on ubuntu 7.10

glib 2.15 is needed for gio. but as svn is for the coming release, its using unstable software as dependencies

yes, but installing glib can be more critical just for run a webcam manager imho

you can wait for the stable version too ;)

stable version can be compiled with ubuntu 7.10?

you need gstreamer >= 0.10.15 for cheese 0.3.0
0.2.4 should work, but does not work as good as 0.3.0

for gstreamer is no problem, i've compiled all from source, repeat the problem is compile glib...
question: is necessary to use the last version of glib?

for 0.3.0, which is coming quite close to svn, just gstreamer is needed

yes, infact i've saw to you that i've compiled gstreamer from sources.
0.3.0 work

the problem is compiling svn... any solution?

compile glib and gio using jhbuild.

but why do you want to try the svn?

usually i use svn of programs that i'm curious to follow the development
example: rhythmbox, amsn, emesene, rosegarden etc...

but all of this dont require impossible dependencies...

glib is the base of the sistem... is absurd compile it IMHO...

and this is negative for all that wont to test this program

the stable glib will be included in gnome 2.22, so i dont see a problem there. if you want to test without installing unstable software, please use the gnome developer kit

Setting to NEEDINFO since reporter is waiting to install newer version of cheese. Then he can reopen this bug.
