I am using the Debian testing package (0.93.3-12) and would like to

so it's most likely that this is why it doesn't load.

avoid having to compile Gem from source, as IOhannes puts so much effort
into packaging it and for the sake of it automatically updating as
package.
(IOhannes, do you know the time frame for the next Gem Debian release,
btw?)

It would be sad if the pix_opencv deken package only works with a
locally compiled (git) Gem. Do you think that compiling pix_opencv
locally could also solve the problem?

maybe, but to be honnest I don't remember if pix_opencv uses recent Gem feature,

it's worth a try compiling it against Gem 0.93-3

Would you be permitted to distribute a binary libopencv via Deken for OS
X?

If you mean legally by opencv license, yes.

Oh yes, I have seen these ridiculous gigabytes of Xcode tools which you
are forced to install on OS X.

thanks and
