OpenCV with Kit 105 custom app

Omniverse General Discussion

I have a custom extension and app using OpenCV that was working earlier but it is erroring with Kit 105.
I am getting an error while building custom app using Kit 105 (based on https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/kit/docs/kit-project-template/latest/tutorial.html). I get the following error:

Here is the initialization of my extension:
from pathlib import Path
import carb
import numpy as np
import omni.ext
import omni.kit.app
import omni.ui as ui
import omni.kit.pipapi
omni.kit.pipapi.install(“opencv-python”)
import cv2

The error is occuring only with the latest Kit 105 custom extension/app. It works fine with USD composer 2023.2.5 when enabled as an extension.

Resolved it by using the solution from jshrake as follows:
