I've searched for similar issues already, and my issue has not been reported yet.

Linux distribution Ubuntu 20.10

Howdy 2.6.1

check if python-numpy and python-opencv are currently installed on your system

Try sudo pip3 install opencv-python numpy to install the packages in system directories

Extremely weird, what you did should have fixed the issue. Have you tried reinstalling Howdy itself?

[cloudsun9]

Uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. I wonder if it is to with the fact I am doing this on Ubuntu 20.10. I asked Slimbook for help with Slimbook Face, before I found out it was just a GUI for Howdy, and they said it works on 20.04 but that they have no ideas about 20.10.

[VanVan]

@boltgolt Everything worked fine for me on Ubuntu 20.10, but this problem came after updating to Ubuntu 21.04

It was necessary to install manually sudo pip3 install numpy sudo pip3 install opencv-python sudo pip3 install dlib

The problem was fixed for me by installing only the packages specified in my previous message. I didn't invest more, but if you don't use python packages for other programs, you can uninstall all the python packages and howdy and try to reinstall the whole thing

[NightMasterX]

This is still a problem...

[EmixamPP]

Maybe using the distribution's repo is a better idea than using pip: sudo apt install python3-numpy?

[cloudsun9]

sudo apt install python3-numpy Done long ago. I get the same with other python solutions though, so not your fault.

[Lyton505]

Same issue on Pop_OS 22.04

[Lyton505]

Hey @boltgolt are you still looking into this issue? I can confirm this is a problem on PopOS 22.04 too

[boltgolt]

It usually seems to be an issue where the python environment pip uses is not the one that Howdy will load into. Maybe:

python3 -m pip install numpy
python3 -m pip install opencv-python
python3 -m pip install dlib

All three should result in a Requirement already satisfied

[cloudsun9]

Nope, that's still not it. I believe howdy is looking in the wrong (old?) locations. I'm on Ubuntu 22.10 now.

[boltgolt]

Howdy just imports like any other python3 script. Maybe you can look into similar issues with other python programs?

[esseswann]

I think I can confirm that this happens after release upgrade. I upgrdaded from 22.04 to 23.04 and this happened

[cloudsun9]

Disappointing.

[saidsay-so]

Do you have multiple versions of Python installed on your system?

[rb58853]

this work for me on debian 12: $nano ~/.bashrc in the end of this file(bashrc) write: export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" save the file with ctrl+x, y, enter source ~/.bashrc reinstall te packages (numpy, opencv-python,dlib )
