**env:**ubuntu16.04 anaconda3 python3.7.8 cuda10.0 gcc5.5

command:

conda activate myenv
python
import cv2

error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/home/.conda/envs/myenv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/cv2/__init__.py", line 5, in from .cv2 import * ImportError: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried:

RUN apt install libgl1-mesa-glx -y
    RUN apt-get install 'ffmpeg'\
        'libsm6'\
        'libxext6'  -y

but this is already installed and the latest version(libgl1-mesa-glx18.0.5-0ubuntu0~16.04.1). then i tried:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx

it doesn't work. finally,I tried to remove the package:

sudo apt-get --purge remove libgl1-mesa-glx

another error occurred:

Reading package list... Done

Some packages cannot be installed. If you are using an unstable distribution, this may be
Because the system cannot reach the state you requested. There may be some software you need in this version
The packages have not been created yet or they have been moved out of the Incoming directory.
The following information may be helpful in solving the problem:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libqt5multimedia5-plugins: Dependency: libqgsttools-p1 (>= 5.5.1) but it will not be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve failed. This may be due to a software package being required to maintain the status quo.

Any help would be really helpful.Thanks in advance.

I have solved this problem! Firstly, find the file:

find /usr -name libGL.so.1

I found /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1. Then, I created a soft link:

ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1

Finally, I verified that it is valid:

# python
import cv2

Usually these Pacakges are meant to be installed as System Packages and Not only Python packages. Therefore many times even after successfull installation of such packages like opencv, cmake, dlib they don't work.

The Best way is to Install them is using.

sudo apt-get install python3-opencv

This is the Preferred Method for the Successfull Installation of opencv on Ubuntu as per the Official Opencv Docs.

Note this is the preferred method only if you don’t care about having the latest version.Ullyot
