qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "/home/me/miniconda3/envs/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/cv2/qt/plugins" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: xcb, eglfs, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, webgl.

Solution

Setting the environment variable QT_PLUGIN_PATH, in terminal, may resolve the error:

export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/home/me/miniconda3/envs/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/cv2/qt/plugins

If not, install the dependencies:

sudo apt-get install libxcb1

pip install pyqt5
