I have a docker image that I need to install openCV in it and from yesterday it started to fail because it cannot find the "skbuild" module:

Update
I tried it on different python and pip versions, python versions 3.6 and 3.7 and pip version 19.12 and 20.2.2 and 9.0.1 (the one inside image).
Update 2
I added pip install scikit-build one step before opencv installation but I get another error related to cmake:

If you read the opencv-python package FAQ in PyPI, it clearly provides an answer for this specific issue: you must run pip install --upgrade pip. Check pip version afterwards with pip -V.
This is because your pip is too old to understand the new manylinux2014 package format and tries to compile from source. That will also fail because pip is too old to understand how to use pyproject.toml to install build dependencies such as scikit-build.
Another issue I'm spotting is that you install both opencv-python and opencv-contrib-python. You should not do this. It's also explained in the PyPI page of the packages. Most likely you should be using just opencv-contrib-python-headless package since you are using Docker and I assume you do not use the GUI functionalities of OpenCV.
just update the pip and it will work
python -m pip install --upgrade pipJust update pip. If you use python3 then:
pip3 install --upgrade pip
pip3 install opencv-pythonskbuild is for Scikit-build.
Install it using pip:
As for windows: pip install scikit-build
After the succesfull installation:
pip install cmake
Since I have python3 installed, I had to use
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
11/may/2021: faced same issue on a fresh ubuntu18 virtualbox image. this worked for me
sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade pip
pip3 install opencv-pythonI also had the error, in my case when executing
python3.7 -m pip install --user opencv-python in order to get catkin_make -j8 working again in a ROS project. Thus, Docker is not needed to get the error.
First the details:

Additional hints for the cmake error that is mentioned in the Update 2
This cmake error is perhaps due to a corrupted workspace during or after catkin_make install:
- I had a similar
cmakeerror when I executed thecatkin_makecommand inside my Python virtual environment. When I changed back to the base environment (usingdeactivate),catkin_makeran through. This is probably due to dependency issues in the virtual environment, perhaps also because of the version that is used when you use standardpython -mthat is used by some internal scripts, see one of the bullet points above. I had to assign python2.7 to thepython -m pip -Vpip version, probably because ROS gazebo needed 2.7. - Most promising (if this is a catkin issue): simply remove catkin and install it again, see Error 2 Invoking "make -j4 -l4" failed.
- Perhaps also see Invoking "cmake" failed.
I had a similar problem and what finally worked was to change from python:3-alpine to python:3.8-slim and install python and openCV similar to what has been done in the selected answer here: Minimal SciPy Dockerfile
If non of these answers works for you try:
pip3 install opencv-python-headlesswith python3 you need to use pip3
