Give more information if you have
After i installed this package and tried to configure /dev/video0 it did nothing just flashed webcam light. Then i tried /dev/video1 and it said opencv can not open /dev/video1. I was trying to make howdy work. After it did not work i tried rebooting laptop, also i shutdown and start it, but now the webcamera stopped working. I tried to remove this package but still when i try to use webcamera it's light just flashes like it did when i tried to configure it. I tried modprobe -r uvcvideo and then modprobe it still does not work. This package broke something in my system. What could it be and how can i fix my webcamera?
HERE when i ran configure it did not have ANY output. I still waited for about 30 minutes and then pressed CTRL+C. It stopped. I quickly removed this package shutdown->start camera is broken!
Be patient, do not kill the process (you could break the camera); it is not stuck if you see the Searching... output blinking. If you really have to, press CTRL+C, the tool will stop safely as soon as possible (you may have to answer a last question see 5.).```
