We still need a clean way of uninstalling opencv2.4 $ opkg list | grep opencv $ opkg remove lib32-opencv --force-removal-of-dependent-packages $ opkg list | grep opencv $ opkg remove lib32-opencv-dbg --force-removal-of-dependent-packages $ opkg remove lib32-opencv-calib3d2.4 --force-removal-of-dependent-packages $ opkg list | grep opencv $ opkg remove lib32-libopencv-calib3d2.4 --force-removal-of-dependent-packages $ opkg list | grep opencv $ opkg remove lib32-libopencv-core2.4 --force-removal-of-dependent-packages $ opkg install opencv_3.4.6_8x96.ipk $ /usr/bin/opencv_version 3.4.6
