BUG: Can't compile with V4L2

It would be nice if Motion worked with an up-to-date V4L2. Please refactor code to utilize V4L2, or V4L1 as a fallback option.

My first problem was a segmentation fault (core dumped) after a recent Ubuntu update. Now motion won't start, it fails after a few minutes. I followed the instructions to retrieve the latest trunk from subversion and attempted to install it. That's when I got the errors below.

motion.c:585:26: error: ?VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV420P? undeclared (first use in this function)
         cnt->imgs.type = VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV420P;

Environment

Motion version:	3.2.12
ffmpeg version:	2.7.4-0ubuntu0.15.10.1
Shared libraries:	ffmpeg, mysql, postgresql
Server OS:	Ubuntu 15.10, kernel 4.2.0-23-generic

Workaround: use "./configure --without-v4l" during compilation if the system is only using network cameras.
