Use something like
AC_ARG_ENABLE([webcam],
[AS_HELP_STRING([--disable-webcam], [disable use of webcam])],
[AC_DEFINE([USE_WEBCAM], [1], [enable/disable webcam broadcaster])])
If you have some sources that don't need to be compiled at all in some
case (and you use Automake), you can follow this by
AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_WEBCAM], [test "$enable_webcam" != no])
and put in Makefile.am something like
bin_PROGRAMS = foo
foo_SOURCES = foo1.c ...
if COND_WEBCAM
foo_SOURCES += foo_webcam.c ...
endif
Cheers,
Ralf
