ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2'

System information (version)

• OpenCV => 4.6.0
• Operating System / Platform => Ubuntu 20.04
• Compiler => gcc-9

Detailed description

I was getting the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2' after running make install.

The problem

The PYTHON3_PACKAGES_PATH was being set to /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages
This started to happen in version 4.6.0. I suspect that the cmake find is not picking the correct path.

Temporary fix

set cmake to install in the correct path cmake -D PYTHON3_PACKAGES_PATH=/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages ..

I am having the same problem. I KINDA fixed it by using auto-py-to-exe and I selected a bunch of files in the cv2 folder as well as the cv2 folder itself, although that may be redundant. No it actually imports cv2, but I get this error - ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import. SO I'm on to the next one now

@chetubetcha I am glad to know that you have also found a fix.

It's been a while, but I think I copied all the CV modules from my venv to my build directory and it worked

I have serious issues with using pyenv where if I load a library I'm not sure where exactly it gets installed ending up with the module not found issues.
