Compiling PyTracker software using old version of CMake

asked 2018-03-27 04:57:09 -0600

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to download and construct the required software to run PyTracker/Python using openCV but ran into problems at step 7.4 of the tutorial (http://opencv-python-tutroals.readthe...). The guide instructs to download a (presumably old) version of CMake-gui (cmake-2.8.11.2) and when I tried to compile the software, an error message came up saying that I need a newer version of CMake. I downloaded a newer version from their website but couldn't open it, and my supervisor suggested that with a new version of CMake, I would also require new versions of the other software components.

Has anyone else experienced/overcome this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Caitlin

  • what exactly is: PyTracker/Python ? (which functionality do you need ?)
  • the tutrorials are from 2013, and no more maintained.
  • if you're on win, a simple pip install opencv-contrib-python might do
