I am trying to work with opencv 3.0 on my Mac OS 10.12.6 I am working with Anaconda in a python 3.5 environment, and have tried the following command in terminal:

conda install -c jlaura OpenCV3

from the following: https://anaconda.org/search?q=platform%3Aosx-64%20opencv3

However, this ends up giving the following output/error:

PackageNotFoundError: Packages missing in current channels:

  • opencv3 -> tbb

We have searched for the packages in the following channels: (This is followed by a number of links, which stack overflow will not let me post as I don't have enough rep yet)

What is the best way to get opencv 3.0 on conda with a python 3.5 environment?

I need this because I am trying to implement the following: https://github.com/datitran/object_detector_app

Thanks

  • Thanks for pointing that out, I have seen that thread and it point to conda install -c menpo opencv, which is for opencv 3.2 – Veejay Oct 17 '17 at 18:00

I essentially had to reinstall python 3.5 using:

conda install python=3.5

and then get the opencv 3.0 version like so:

conda install -c jlaura opencv3

And that did it.

I ran into the exact same problem, trying to use the same repo, however the above did not work for me. Eventually I was able to download openCV 3.0.0 by running

conda install -c memex opencv

If this has for some reason deprecated, you can always search for another option on the anaconda cloud website. Just ctrl-f for 3.0.0 and find a package that includes your platform (osx in my case).
