[Yuan-Chen Cheng (ycheng-twn)]

The patch lives in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/merge_requests/17 it's merged on Sep 21 2020.

However, it does not exist in cheese-3.34.0 nor cheese deb 3.38.0-3 in debian/unstable.

To really fix it, the first step is to land this change in debian.

[Yuan-Chen Cheng (ycheng-twn)]

cheese version 41 is release at 2021-Nov-15, https://download.gnome.org/sources/cheese/41/

quick check r40, it contains those patch in #6. and jammy have version 41.1-1

Given so, close this one.
