在 anaconda3 中安装 openCV - Python.h：没有那个文件或目录

Question

I'm trying to build opencv 3.1.0 for my anaconda3 installation and my build is failing at:

[ 94%] Building CXX object modules/python3/CMakeFiles/opencv_python3.dir/__/src2/cv2.cpp.o
/home/mikel/Soft/opencv/modules/python/src2/cv2.cpp:6:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

I have opencv and opencv-contrib cloned with versions 3.1.0 by using git checkout 3.1.0 in both and I am trying to build in ~/Soft/opencv/build where I have opencv-contrib in ~/Soft/opencv-contrib . I'm running Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 with an i7-4960X.

My main goal is to make opencv work in my anaconda3 installation and so my cmake command is the following:

cmake \
 -D  CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE \
 -D  CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \
 -D  INSTALL_C_EXAMPLES=OFF \
 -D  INSTALL_PYTHON_EXAMPLES=ON \
 -D  OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=~/Soft/opencv_contrib/modules \
 -D  PYTHON3_EXECUTABLE=/home/mikel/anaconda3/bin/python3.5 \
 -D  PYTHON3_INCLUDE_DIR=/home/mikel/anaconda3/include/ \
 -D  PYTHON3_LIBRARY=/home/mikel/anaconda3/lib/libpython3.5m.so \
 -D  PYTHON3_PACKAGES_PATH=/home/mikel/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ \
 -D  PYTHON3_NUMPY_INCLUDE_DIRS=/home/mikel/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/numpy/core/include \
 -D  PYTHON_DEFAULT_AVAILABLE=/home/mikel/anaconda3/bin/python3.5 \
 -D  BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON ..

The output of my cmake command is here: http://pastebin.com/qtd1wyMb - Everything okay as far as I can see.

I then run make -j12 to install opencv and after a few warnings it runs fine until 94%, where I get the following output:

It looks like my issue is because I'm using the anaconda3 paths instead of the standard python3 paths, it can no longer find Python.h. However, when I install using the system python3 installation, I can't import opencv into anaconda where I need it.

I have python3-dev and python-dev installed, so Python.h should be on my machine. What do I need to change in order to make openCV find Python.h?

EDIT: I found that Anaconda3's Python.h is in anaconda3/include/python3.5m/ so I set PYTHON3_INCLUDE_DIR=anaconda3/include/python3.5m/ and now I get a different error:

Answer 1

I fixed the issue. The problem was that PYTHON3_INCLUDE_DIR was set to ~/anaconda3/include while Anaconda's Python.h is actually inside ~/anaconda3/include/python3.5m . Setting PYTHON3_INCLUDE_DIR=anaconda3/include/python3.5m/ fixes this issue as it now sees Python.h

However, this led to another problem where some .h files such as hdf5.h and H5public.h were no longer visible to OpenCV as these were in the main anaconda3/include/ directory, not in the subfolder.

The solution for this was to copy all the .h files from the include/ directory into the include/python3.5m directory (copying the contents of both into another directory and setting that as the path would also work) so that all the .h files are in the same folder visible to the compiler. OpenCV now builds!

Answer 2

Solved by setting CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH variable prior to configuring cmake

export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=$(python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_inc; print(get_python_inc())")

Then configure cmake as

cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE \
-D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \
-D INSTALL_PYTHON_EXAMPLES=ON \
-D INSTALL_C_EXAMPLES=OFF \
-D WITH_TBB=ON \
-D WITH_CUDA=ON \
-D BUILD_opencv_cudacodec=OFF \
-D ENABLE_FAST_MATH=1 \
-D CUDA_FAST_MATH=1 \
-D WITH_CUBLAS=1 \
-D WITH_V4L=ON \
-D WITH_QT=OFF \
-D WITH_OPENGL=ON \
-D WITH_GSTREAMER=ON \
-D OPENCV_GENERATE_PKGCONFIG=ON \
-D OPENCV_PC_FILE_NAME=opencv.pc \
-D OPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON \
-D OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=/home/udara/Documents/research/opencv/opencv-contrib-source/modules \
-D BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON \
-D HAVE_opencv_python3=ON \
-D OPENCV_PYTHON3_INSTALL_PATH=$(python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())") \
-D PYTHON3_PACKAGES_PATH=$(python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())") \
-D PYTHON_EXECUTABLE=$(which python) \
-D PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=$(python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_inc; print(get_python_inc())") \
-D PYTHON_LIBRARY=/home/udara/anaconda3/envs/jupyter/lib/libpython3.so ../opencv-source
