More fswebcam
I finished setting up Watchdog and decided to test it by unplugging the camera. Watchdog should detect no image captured after ten minutes and reboot the Pi. And, hooray, it works.
However, in the midst of that I was surprised to see that fswebcam returns 0 even when there is no camera. However, I shouldn't have been surprised because I raised the issue almost exactly five years ago: fswebcam returns zero even on error.
So, it looks like I need to build fswebcam after all.
Well, I thought about it and will continue posting.I'll think about it. As I said, I'm almost done
