I fixed a directory layer bug in the v4l rpms just to uncover this
incompatibility bug between ivtv and v4l. ivtv need to be repackaged
excluding this file. Until I get this fixed get the rpm manually and
install with rpm --force -ihv.

Don't tell anyone I ever recommended using --force, I will deny
everything and say this posting is a fake ... ;)
