Julia 1.8.3 can't "add OpenCV" CxxWrap issues.

[ghost]

I'm running Julia 1.8.3. I can get CxxWrap 0.12 (and corresponding libcxxwrap-julia v0.9.0) to "add CxxWrap" and Pkg.precompile() fine. In fact, I can "import CxxWrap" - no problem. What I'm finding is that when I "add OpenCV" it's version of CxxWrap doesn't work for me. The CxxWrap wants a version of libcxxwrap-julia to be less than 0.9.0. The problem is that when I bump libcxxxwrap-julia down one notch to 0.8.3 - I can't build it. I suspect CxxWrap 0.11 doesn't like Julia 1.8.3. Not sure what to do.

Here's what I did. I "rm CxxWrap" and I went into .julia/packages and delted "CxxWrap". Then I "dev OpenCV" and hacked the Project.toml file to only use CxxWrap 0.12. Then I added CxxWrap 0.12 "add CxxWrap". Which automatically updated OpenCV. I can now "using OpenCV". I still have to test it.

Well, I was able to load and image and display it. As a seasoned c++/python opencv user, I'll have to explore how to use OpenCV from Julia. Be interesting to see what problems pop out of the woodwork with the Julia Open CV wrapper.

Sounds like this can be closed, @ashwani-rathee ? Cf. passing tests in #25.

Installable and precompiles just fine on Julia 1.8, locally tested
