libv4l is a user-space library used by several applications in order to convert webcam streams in user-space instead of kernel-space. As gspca is included in 2.6.27 this is needed in order to get a multitude of webcams supported with ordinary applications.

See http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/3636.html for a more complete description of the package.

The latest version is 0.4.0 and is available from http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/
