SikuliX

version of OpenCV for linux: 2.2+ or 2.4?

Asked by J Martinez

I've been running sikuli on win7. Great stuff. Script does about 6 hrs of work a day. Moving it to linux becuase moving it onto a virtual machine. Trouble when run it on linux. Get error: . . . libopencv.so.2.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file ....
That looks like version 2.4 is required. I installed 2.3. That was the latest I found in the linux mint pkg manager. Should I roam the web for version 2.4 openCV in .deb format, or is it some other error. Currently the sikuli download page says that 2.2+ is all that is required. Thank you.

Turns out that is one of the (probably many) symptoms of needing to build libVisionProxy.so using the code and instructions supplied in "Silkuli-1.0.1-Supplemental-LinuxVisionProxy.zip"
Once the new set of prerequisites were downloaded and installed it went very smooth.
(Initially I went and found a 2.4 version of opencv-core, but I then got an error about not finding highgui, so I could see where things were going and was glad I back tracked and got back on the path.)
