Description
Hi all, thanks for making opencv-python!
I read about the deprecation of macOS builds for old versions like macOS 10.14 e.g. here https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/5583 but I wonder if it would be feasible to try to build the latest openCV for such an old macOS version myself or are there insurmountable obstacles that would make such an effort pointless? Thanks!
