Research direction

Start with the linked Raspberry Pi article and the current Picamera2 installation on Bookworm, then check where the example imports qt_gl_preview and whether that module is present or has changed. Done means either the example runs without ModuleNotFoundError or the issue documents the supported replacement or compatibility limitation.

Description

I'm on a raspberry pi 4b running Bookworm.

I'm trying to run the python code here:
[(https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/using-the-picamera2-library-with-tensorflow-lite/)]

but I get a
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'qt_gl_preview'

Anyone else have this problem? Did the module change since 2022?
