For anyone getting "RuntimeError: Unsupported image type, must be 8bit gray or RGB image", downgrade python-numpy to 1.26.4-2 and all will be okay... for now. See https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy/issues/937 for further discussion.

Anyone else having issues with howdy and Plasma Screen Locking? It used to work but after some updates (don't know if python, Plasma or howdy), doesn't work any more.

In case someone found howdy stopped working after upgrading Python version (e.g. from 3.9 to 3.10 recently): recompile and re-install python-dlib would solve the issue.


@salvocos Interesting point. python-dlib is in the dependency, and my installation works without dlib. Maybe python-dlib already contains the necessary functionality?
My installation also works without issues with opencv 4.5.4-10 (current version).

I am exeriencing the same problem as the others.
Could it be the opencv vrsion (I have opencv>4)?

Thank you for creating the package. It seems that dlib is dependency, which is missing. Do you agree with that?

Hiya, you seem to be missing a dependency on fmt?

Without the package I'm getting the following error;

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/howdy", line 109, in <module>
    import cli.test
  File "/usr/lib/security/howdy/cli/test.py", line 9, in <module>
    import cv2

pugixml needs to be added as a dependency to prevent the error in the previous comment. Manually install it to workaround the problem for now.

@boltgolt, sorry, but you did not answer comments a long time.

Interesting to see an orphan request filed here by @komex without emailing me first. If you have to time to update the package here just contact me and I'll add you as co-maintainer. I'm sorry that i don't monitor the AUR comments closely enough, I'm more active in the GitHub repo
