I looked at the qt camview problem. I have an installed version of linuxcnc and 
it is broken there.
Strangley I can not find where it got broken in the source.
The fix is easy
In camview.py need to change to these lines.

try:
    import cv2 as CV
    DEFAULT_API = CV.CAP_ANY
except:
    LOG.error('Qtvcp Error with camview - is python3-opencv installed?')
    LIB_GOOD = False
    DEFAULT_API = 0 # CV.CAP_ANY

And of course the camera on the go704 doesn't work making qt upset at
init time for about 40 seconds of ......... spew. It only worked for 3
or 4 days a couple/three months back. With cheese it Just Works. This is
upsetting, it works for 2 or 4 upgrades, then disappears again for 6
months until I start pestering the list again.

I'm as tired of that as you all are reading about my camera woes.

It never works long enough for me to get the align kit from our wiki
fully calibrated. Yet it works with cheese on any machine I plug it into.
