Description

I'm trying to make a face recognition with raspberrypi, and I have a code that opens a camera preview, so i can make infinite photos to make him learn.

The problem is, when I run the code, it comes the following message:

Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland"

What should I do??

Research direction

Start by reproducing the camera preview on a Raspberry Pi and investigate the reported Qt platform plugin "wayland" error in the OpenCV Python environment. Done means the preview opens without the missing-plugin message; the issue does not include source files or a test to run.
