"I've set up face recognition using 'howdy add' and it confirmed a match, but it still doesn't unlock my screen properly."

@maoyaotang1 You have this runtime issue because the x265 package got updated and howdy was not and is still using older library.

To fix this, please reinstall/rebuild howdy-git, and to be safe python-dlib as well (preferably with clean build). I bumped the version so it'll be seen as update.

Let me know if you still have issues.

@joehillen Every time the python package gets an update to new version, all libraries need to be updated as well, unfortunately. python-dlib is from AUR so you'll have to remember to rebuild it manually.

This issue is described on the wiki.

Nevermind. Rebuilding python-dlib from a fresh clone solved the issue.

howdy has recently broken for me

$ sudo howdy test
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/howdy/cli.py", line 117, in <module>
    import cli.test
  File "/usr/lib/howdy/cli/test.py", line 10, in <module>
    import dlib
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dlib'

python-dlib is installed and I tried reinstalling it. I don't know enough about Python to investigate deeper.

Package script have been rewritten from scratch to use native meson build.
