Hello,
I want to check the OpenCV version without using python, I mean directly from the terminal.
the expected results should be in the following format:
Name: opencv
Description: The opencv library
Version: 2.x.x
Cflags: -I${includedir}/opencv -I${includedir}/opencv2
Libs: -L${libdir} -lopencv_calib3d -lopencv_imgproc -lopencv_contrib -lopencv_legacy -lopencv_core -lopencv_ml -lopencv_features2d -lopencv_objdetect -lopencv_flann -lopencv_video -lopencv_highgui
Thank you.
If you have installed OpenCV with pkg_config enabled, just type:
cat /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/opencv4.pc
(or /usr/lib/... if installed from the package manager and .../opencv.pc if using opencv 2.x/3.x).
If needed, type find /usr -name opencv4.pc (or opencv.pc)
Hello,
Thanks for replying,
Actually, I tried all that did you mentioned here, and none of them is working for me.
The output of this
import cv2
print(cv2.version)
is
My main issue was
OpenCv V4 was already installed, and I solved it by running the following
sudo apt-get install libopencv-dev
look for opencv_version. it’s an executable.
Thanks @crackwitz , already fixed.
Just note that your open cv version and your python package for opencv may not be the same version, as per my understanding opencv is a system installed library, and the python opencv package is just a python package using it. E.g. I have (per opencv_version) opencv 4.2.0, and my python opencv is 4.5.
