Image opened from REPL hangs - macOS

[andymina]

Expected behaviour

An image opened from a Python shell should close:

• after 1 second with cv2.waitKey(1000)
• with cv2.destroyWindow("<window_name>")
• with cv2.destroyAllWindows()

Actual behaviour

The image opens, but it hangs when closing in either of the two above cases.

Steps to reproduce

OS: macOS Catalina 10.15.7
opencv-python version - 4.5.5.64
python version: 3.10.4

From within a python shell:

import cv2
img = cv2.imread("<path_to_image>")
cv2.imshow("window", img)

After this, any of the three options listed in the expected behavior will result in a frozen, unresponsive window. I don't think this is expected behavior because I haven't seen anything about this in the docs, but I could be very wrong. Thank you!

Issue submission checklist

• This is not a generic OpenCV usage question (looking for help for coding, other usage questions, homework etc.)
• I have read the README of this repository and understand that this repository provides only an automated build toolchain for OpenCV Python packages (there is no actual OpenCV code here)
• The issue is related to the build scripts in this repository, to the pre-built binaries or is a feature request (such as "please enable this additional dependency")
• I'm using the latest version of opencv-python
