Package name:
opencv-contrib-python
Package Upstream Source:
opencv-contrib-python
Purpose of using this:
Some libraries for marker detection in OpenCV are only available in said package.
This package is automatically installed when using
pip install opencv-python
but not when usingapt-get install python-opencv
orapt-get install python3-opencv
.Since the request to make OpenCV installable through pip was discarded here, I would like to, at least, have the opencv-contrib-python package available.
