I am working on a computer vision project and need to install the cv2 into my python environment. However, when installing !pip install opencv-python, I encountered a persistent issue.
I tried using Gemini to solve the problem, and I was advised to follow these steps
Troubleshooting Steps:
Monitor Progress: Let it continue for a reasonable time (larger packages can take upwards of 30 minutes). Look for informative messages or errors in the installation log.
Reinstall (if necessary):
After troubleshooting, attempt a fresh installation.
Use pip install --no-cache-dir opencv-python to avoid cached files.
Consider a specific wheel file if available.
I have waited for more than 30 minutes and have also attempted the pip install --no-cache-dir opencv-python command, but I have yet to receive any positive feedback.
