Python and OpenCV issues

Error:

   import cv2, numpy as np,time
 File "/home/fincahuanaco/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/cv2/__init__.py", line 3, in <module>
   from .cv2 import *
ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

 

Solution:

$ python3 -m pip install opencv-python==4.0.0.21

$ python3 -m pip list  
 

opencv-python          4.0.0.21

numpy                  1.15.0

 

Other combinations

opencv_python==4.4.0.46 and numpy==1.19.3 works.
