Bug Description
I've read and re-read and tried and re-tried every other bug report or documentation on this issue and nothing has brought my webcam back to life.
Please provide the exact combination of packages and their versions, along with any additional configuration needed to get the webcam back working.
Should I use the libhal support or the tentacool driver?
A simple, up-to-date document with these steps and package versions would be extremely helpful.

I don't think there is libcamhal-ipu6ep0 for 23.04. Did you do do-release-upgrade from 22.04? You will have working stack from jammy, but there won't have any update anymore, since we support it on LTS only.
On 22.04, all required packages are in the recommends list of oem-somerville- tentacool meta. I think all required packages will be installed by the auto prompts software updater.
The steps is in the nature update flow no specific tweak on 22.04, so there is no documents for it.
