Bug Description

Binary package hint: cheese

Loïc Minier notes that Debian has included the following patches in preparing their 2.22.0 version We should include these as well.

  * debian/patches/00_fix_crash_on_init.patch:
    + Added. Fixed crash on intialisation because of running strcmp on NULL.
      (From upstream svn)
  * debian/patches/10_fallback_on_failure.patch:
    + Added. Fallback to videotestsrc if getting information from the video
      device fails
  * debian/patches/20_dont_start_pipeline_in_init.patch:
    + Added. Don't create the gstreamer pipeline in the Webcam object
      initialisation as this is quite bad style. As a nice side-effect this
      fixes cheese not using the webcam device set in gconf.
