Error after installing OpenCV on M1 MacBook

[indrayudd]

Hi,
Although conda install -c conda-forge opencv===4.5.3 seems to run, on testing the package by importing, the following error is thrown:

(dlai) Indrayudds-MacBook-Air:~ indro$ python -c "import cv2; print(cv2.version)"
Traceback (most recent call last):

My environment lib folder does have this liblapack.3.dylib file too. Help would be appreciated!

The CvLib library is poorly maintained. It has to been replaced with a better mainatained libraries like OpenCV or scikit-image for computer vision tasks.

The dependencies in the requirements.txt needs to be updated.
