c++ - OpenCV on ubuntu 11.10

Question

I've just updated my system from ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10 and now I can't compile anymore any C program that contain references to OpenCV libraries

I've already tried to reinstall OpenCV (I use the 2.1 version) but I'm stuck with this error:

/tmp/ccArHTZL.o: In function `main':
z.c:(.text+0x59): undefined reference to `cvLoadImage'
z.c:(.text+0xa0): undefined reference to `cvNamedWindow'
z.c:(.text+0xb1): undefined reference to `cvShowImage'
z.c:(.text+0xbb): undefined reference to `cvWaitKey'
z.c:(.text+0xc5): undefined reference to `cvDestroyWindow'
z.c:(.text+0xd1): undefined reference to `cvReleaseImage'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

In order to install OpenCV I've always followed this procedure:

$ sudo apt-get install libcv2.1 libcv-dev libcvaux2.1 libcvaux-dev libhighgui2.1
     libhighgui-dev opencv-doc python-opencv

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/opencv/lib
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/opencv/lib/pkgconfig

$ pkg-config --cflags opencv
     -I/usr/include/opencv

$ pkg-config --libs opencv
     -lcxcore -lcv -lhighgui -lcvaux -lml

$ g++ -I/usr/include/opencv -lcxcore -lhighgui -lm hello.c

Anyone can help me?

Answer 1

Why don't you use pkg-config to your favor?

g++ hello.c -o hello `pkg-config --cflags --libs opencv`
