Description

Hi Anchi,

I was wondering if you have an insight on this problem. We keep getting segmentation faults whenever we use openCV. I created a new test file in leginon/testOpenCV.py to show the problem I am having.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys
import cv2
import numpy
import platform

print "system platform: ", platform.platform()
print "openCV version:  ", cv2.__version__

detector = cv2.FeatureDetector_create("SIFT")
descriptor = cv2.DescriptorExtractor_create("BRIEF")
matcher = cv2.DescriptorMatcher_create("BruteForce-Hamming")
image1 = numpy.random.random((128,128))
kp1=detector.detect(image1)

print "We did it, openCV is working, congrats to all" 

When testing I always get a "Segmentation fault" with different versions and different systems.

CentOS 7:

system platform:  Linux-3.10.0-514.10.2.el7.x86_64-x86_64-with-centos-7.4.1708-Core
openCV version:   2.4.5
Segmentation fault

system platform:  Linux-4.4.83-boot2docker-x86_64-with-centos-7.3.1611-Core
openCV version:   2.4.5
Segmentation fault

Fedora 24:

system platform:  Linux-4.11.12-100.fc24.x86_64-x86_64-with-fedora-24-Twenty_Four
openCV version:   2.4.12.2
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Debian 9:

system platform:  Linux-3.16.0-4-amd64-x86_64-with-debian-8.9
openCV version:   2.4.9.1
Segmentation fault

From our IT guy:

It turns out that the Debian version of OpenCV 2.4.9 does not have SIFT or SURF compiled or available, apparently, at all.  So, I'm working on recompiling from official source (not Debian's package source) OpenCV 2.4.9 to provide the non-free portions of code.  This is taking me down a route of more dependency chasing, but hopefully I'll have it built soon (famous last words).

After compiling a openCV 2.4.9 from source code, it seems to be working now.

This issue was found a few months ago in RCT Error Related to CV Module...

Ah, that makes sense, when I click on your link I get:
