Tested here with TVtime and Kopete accessing a bttv PCI card, Kopete does
change tvtime's current input, but neither program crashes or stops working.
The problem resides in the fact Linux's V4L2 kernel API allows multiple
simultaneous access to a given device, although the 2nd and later accesses are
limited. It's an expected behavior by the driver, and not a lot can be done to
prevent it while we're detecting devices' capabilities, and removing proper
detection would hamper a lot of other Kopete characteristics.
I aknowledge the validity of this bug, but as the practical impossibility
(feasible, but impractical) of fixing it with the present linux video
architecture while preserving other needed features implemented in Kopete, I'll
close this bug with the LATER status, and address this issue again when the
architecture allows it.
