Question

what should I do to complete install opencv correctly ???

I tried used this two below command that showed here but it does not work

sudo apt-get install opencv-data

sudo apt-get install libopencv-dev

Answer 1

Use these commands:

sudo add-apt-repository deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libjasper1 libjasper-dev

This worked on my Ubuntu 18.04 after I replaced the double-quotes with single quotes. With the double quotes I was getting this error:

Error: need a single repository as argument
