Guvcview functions perfectly without uvcdynctrl.
uvcdynctrl just adds some exotic uvc ctrls for older logitech cameras, like
a led ctrl.
The recommend can be droped without any problem.

"Guvcview doesn't depend upon uvcdynctrl it just recommends it." Okay, but
unless you disable "recommends", uvcdynctrl gets installed. Based on a little
bit of research I performed, it is not recommended to disable "recommends"
because recommended packages are usually needed for a more useful
Guvcview doesn't depend on uvcdynctrl it just recommends it.
I've fixed uvcdynctrl upstream but haven't push a new deb package because
due to some uvc driver changes it became mostly irrelevant. Also I think
new uvc devices expose the controls correctly, so there is no real need for
uvcdynctrl.
Any movement on this, the issue was fixed upstream 5+ years ago but as
of today, /lib/udev/uvcdynctrl in sid still contains debug=1
OK users can change that, but on the next upgrade it'll get reverted and
fill the disk.
Seems like a simple patch to change it to debug=0 by default and/or mark
severity 733094 serious

I just had to rescue a system that had four instances of uvcdynctrl
pegging the CPU to 100% and a full disk (that now prevents gdm from
