I am terribly sorry to bother you with this but I am at a loss. When I download the newest python 3.6.1 and opencv 3.2. When install everything I attempt to import cv2, it give me an error as if it cannot be found. I really appreciate your time.

Well on my Linux system I

Download latest OpenCV code
Install all python3-dev, python3-scipy and python3-numpy packages
Build sources with CMAKE, making sure it finds Python3
Do a make and sudo make install

Now whenever I want to access OpenCV through Python I fire up python3, then run import cv2 and that just works out of the blue.
