Install MIVisionX using the Linux package installer

Three MIVisionX packages are available on Linux:

mivisionx: The MIVisionX runtime package. This is the basic rocAL package that only provides dynamic libraries. It must always be installed.

mivisionx-dev: The MIVisionX development package. This package installs a full suite of libraries, header files, and samples. This package needs to be installed to use samples.

mivisionx-test: A test package that provides a CTest to verify the installation.

All the required prerequisites are installed when the package installation method is used.

Note

The package installation only supports the HIP backend. Build and install from source to use the OpenCL backend.

The FFmpeg and OpenCV dev packages must be installed manually on RHEL and SLES.
