Purging chroot-autobuild/build/buildd/pygame-1.9.1release

[Daniel Polehn (dpolehn-gmail)]

ran this using pdebuild and I can confirm that I got this same error.

[Daniel Polehn (dpolehn-gmail)]

patch to hand EOFError when building and use libv4l-dev instead of linux/videodev.h

This bug was fixed in the package pygame - 1.9.1release-0ubuntu3

---------------
pygame (1.9.1release-0ubuntu3) oneiric; urgency=low

  * search multiarch lib directories for dependencies in build (LP: #755980)
  * drop placeholder v4l support (no function lost) to fix build failure.
