Please issue a
LC_ALL=C
before posting log messages.

The archive a sent to the list is already patched. The patch is only for the 
original libv4l version.
If you copied the files from the archive, you need to issue a
make
in the src/barcode/libv4l folder. This will build the required static 
libraries.
Now go on with the normal build process for tellico.

Sorry for not being clear enough.
