Comment 1 for bug 582919

No, not great reason really. I'm using only three or four functions from OpenCV at this point, and I bet we can make it work with either version. I really wish that pyopencv was more widely adopted, though, since it seems to support a lot more of OpenCV's functinality, but that's an unrelated rambling.

Do you want to give that change a try?

If not, I'll try to have a quick look at it in the next few days.
