Hello,

When I tried to sync v4l-utils to the latest kernel I noticed that the
dvb-frontend.h header was copied by lib/libdvbv5/gen_dvb_structs.pl
from lib/include/libdvbv5/dvb-frontend.h to lib/include/dvb-frontend.h.

But no code uses it, and it does not seem to be installed anywhere either.

This was added in this commit:

     libdvbv5: Correct output paths of gen_dvb_structs and write missing header

Can I remove the copy line in gen_dvb_structs.pl? Or is it used for something
that I am not aware of?

I don't remember exactly why I did that change. But back in the days Debian still build for kFreeBSD (FreeBSD kernel with GNU userland). It could be that the change was somehow related to that.

Feel free to clean it up.

Thanks,
Gregor
