ValueError: not enough values to unpack

[thinkmorestupidless]

Guessing i'm missing something obvious here - requires a specific (older) version of opencv-python?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "segment.py", line 94, in <module>
    hand = segment(gray)
  File "segment.py", line 38, in segment
    (_, cnts, _) = cv2.findContours(thresholded.copy(), cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 3, got 2)

I'm just linking the PR that fixes this: #11

In this line: (_, cnts, _) = cv2.findContours(thresholded.copy(), cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
Put (cnts, ) instead of (, cnts, _) this worked for me.
