In the institute we use Scientific Linux 5 on the cluster and I need to deploy an app that uses a modern OpenCV distribution (2.3.1 or 2.4.0). I don’t have root privileges on the cluster.

Essentially, how do I package all the dynamic binary dependencies of ffmpeg (and hopefully x264), opencv so that I can xcopy-deploy my app?

I have a working installation of OpenCV 2.3.1 on Ubuntu. If there was a way to controllably load the executable and copy along all the dynamic dependencies, I could use it.

Thanks,
Vadim

    You don’t need to install OpenCV in the computers if you don’t have permission to do so.

    Place the OpenCV libraries and it’s dependencies somewhere in the system and before you execute your application make sure you adjust LD_LIBRARY_PATH to add these paths.

    To retrieve the list of dependencies of a certain binary application/library, use ldd. You might be interested in reading this post: Copying shared library dependencies
