How to install OpenCV (exactly 2.3.*, not 2.1.*) with python bindings in Ubuntu (or generally, in Linux)? I've seen few manuals on Windows installations, but none for Linux. I've read and used instructions from willow garage site : wget downloads.sourceforge.net/project/opencvlibrary/opencv-unix/2.3.1/OpenCV-2.3.1a.tar.bz2 tar -xvf OpenCV-2.3.1a.tar.bz2 cd OpenCV-2.3.1/ mkdir release cd release cmake -D WITH_TBB=ON -D BUILD_NEW_PYTHON_SUPPORT=ON -D WITH_V4L=OFF -D INSTALL_C_EXAMPLES=ON -D INSTALL_PYTHON_EXAMPLES=ON -D BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON .. make sudo make install All seems to be ok, except that make install output does not mention python. After that I'm trying to import opencv module in python REPL: ~$ python Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39) [GCC 4.4.5] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import numpy # so numpy is installed >>> import cv Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named cv >>> import cv2 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named cv2 What am I doing wrong?
