I can't install cv2 with pip. Why?

I think you’re looking for the opencv-python package, not cv2.

There is no cv2 package on PyPI:

https://pypi.org/project/cv2/

I’ve never heard of cv2, but maybe it has a different name? Or maybe
the project was completely deleted from PyPI?

cv2 is the package you import in Python. It’s provided by the opencv-python distribution.
