Concerns

Here we place all of the concerns when migrating to a newer version of opencv or the repercussions of not upgrading.

Migration to Python 3

• Opencv 2.4.3 does not support Python 3

Camera drivers

• Currently, only some camera drivers are supported with the new version of opencv, leading to problems regarding capture. One issue is the inability to cancel the program webcam capture.

Yum repo

• Right now, only the 2.3.1 version of opencv is available in the yum repository
