Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I just wanted to let you know that I linted all conda-recipes in your PR (recipes/imutils) and found it was in an excellent condition.

[h-vetinari]

Optimistically tagging the package owner @jrosebr1 for possible (co-)maintainership, as well as some people who have already built a conda package for imutils: @pjamesjoyce @mlgill @gilbertfrancois @chriskan0305 @akode @thecampfire.

Would be happy to share the responsibility. :)

Seems the simple recipe based on conda skeleton pypi doesn't work everywhere (it did build locally for me). Will have to leave the debugging for later.

[mlgill]

Please untag me from this discussion. Thank you.

@mlgill: Please untag me from this discussion. Thank you.

I can't do that for you, you'll have to click "unsubscribe" under "Notifications" in the top right-hand corner of the thread.

Sorry @h-vetinari, but I cannot help in that regard. Between authoring the free PyImageSearch posts, helping others learn CV and DL, and of course, maintaining imutils itself, I just don't have the time for anything else.

Currently running into the issue that libGL is not found on linux, which seems to be intentional. I'm trying to glean some tricks from the meta.yaml of the feedstocks for opencv, qt and matplotlib. Let's see if this get's me anywhere.

You might need to use mesa-libGL-devel if you need the headers

[scopatz]

But it looks like you don't use the headers, per se

[h-vetinari]

Opencv doesn't use them either. Frankly, all I tried to do was to get a passing build. 😅

[scopatz]

Which it seems like you have done!

[scopatz]

Let us know when this is ready for review

@scopatz: Let us know when this is ready for review

From my POV, this is ready! The PR template already mentioned that I cannot (yet) tag @conda-forge/help-python, so thanks for stopping by. :)

I would of course gladly accept more recipe maintainers, but as no-one (from the list I tagged) has spoken up in about 36h, I think I'll just bite the bullet.

Thanks @h-vetinari!
