[vdr] Q: vdr-1.4.0/1.4.1 fail to compile

[Andrey Vlassov]

Hi,

thanks for a help.

I found what caused a problem just few minutes latter on linuxtv.org. 
And you are right my installation missed libcap1-devel package. After 
installation of it everything worked fine. Now it is time to recompile 
all plugins.
