Bug description:
Without libv4l support compiled into Gem, some newer webcams and other video devices won't work (they will work in pdp_v4l2, though).

Suggested fix: add libv4l-dev or similar to pd-gem Build-Depends so that the configure autodetects it, or maybe disable all autodetection and force enable all the features we want (probably better in the long run)?
