Impossible. It's too late to get any newer version into Buster and every OpenCV transition is not trivial at all. 3/4 of opencv's reverse dependencies failed to build against opencv4.0. I've just filed a bunch of bugs for this several days ago. > I have nothing against libopencv3.2 apart from the fact that it's > almost 2 years old .

BTW 4.0.1 was already in experimental, along with significant breaking changes. > $ apt-cache policy libopencv-video3.2 libopencv-video3.3 > libopencv-video3.4 libopencv-video4.0 Maybe the next Debian stable release will ship opencv >= 4.0
