• First locate OpenCV files on your machine.

If locate is not installed, install it with: sudo apt install mlocate. You might get results like:

locate opencv.hpp                                                                                                                                                                             (py37_test) 
/usr/include/boost/compute/interop/opencv.hpp
/usr/include/opencv4/opencv2/opencv.hpp
