linux/videodev.h is no longer available in newer versions of linux. Using linux/videodev2.h allowed for a successful build.

Thank you for your work, could you send the patch to Debian as well? the bug has been reported to their BTS as well and the package is in sync between the distribution and should be kept this way if possible

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package uvccapture - 0.5-1ubuntu1

---------------
uvccapture (0.5-1ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Fix build failure by using linux/videodev2.h instead of deprecated
    linux/videodev.h (LP: #756023)
