Ah now I understand. Yes this is true. Have tested it right now. 

$_dvb / $_dvbhead is tested to yes (with devices are in the right places) and 
cccheck is tested to no, but $_dvb[head]  should be changed back to if 
ccchack fails. 

So line 2758 and 2717 

2758:  test -c /dev/dvb/adapter0/video0 && _dvbhead=yes
2717: test -c /dev/ost/video && _dvb=yes

should be deleted (assume I don't have to provide a patch for it, if needed I 
can mail it tomorrow).
IMHO it doesn't matter if a dvb-device is there, then there is no location for 
header-files given and you can't compile anyway.

After the above deletion all works fine. Thanks Matthias on knocking my head 
on that ;)
