👍

[andreh7]

I suspect that raspicam is meant to built against OpenCV 3 while e.g. on my Raspberry Pi (Raspbian 9) I only have OpenCV 2.4 .

[Sedwin97]

So @andreh7 is the only option to build opencv3 from source to build raspicam?

[philliihd]

The easiest solution is to build an earlier commit of raspicam. If you revert to the commit on Jan 27, 2018 then raspicam will build with OpenCV 2.4: 59d92e6

OpenCV 2.4 works prior to a recent pull request (#43) and commit (35ace99) that switched to using OpenCV 3 or higher with no backwards comparability.
