Comment 5 for bug 821916

Thank you Julian for your detailed explanation, I've a workarround for the
skype problem but I tried this to check the fix. I got:

Everything ok until:
>dch -b -v "3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu4.1~natty1" -m "test backport"
dch warning: new version (3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu4.1~natty1) is less than
the current version number (3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu5).

>debuild -us -uc
issue a bunch of warnings (really an awful lot)

Then I changed:
>debi ../xawtv_3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu4.1~natty1_amd64.changes
for
>deb ../xawtv_3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu4.1~natty1_i386.changes
as I use a ubuntu 32 bit version (it's a pretty old computer)

Then in ..
sudo apt-get install ./*deb
That issues a lot of
E: No se encontró la Distribución
«xawtv-tools_3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu4.1~natty1_i386.deb»
and an awful lot of these with various
****3.95.dfsg.1-8.1ubuntu4.1~natty1_i386.deb

Then actually the tan problem disappear:
v4lctl show color
ioctl: VIDIOC_G_STD(std=0xbfa44e480000005c
[PAL_G,PAL_H,PAL_I,PAL_D1,(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null)]):
Invalid argument
fixme: 404 color

It also fix the impossibility to set move the Bright and the Contrast in the
graphic interface of xawtv.

However the Gamma and the Sharpness cannot be changed "up" should I open an
other but for this?
