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.

Please add qt5-base to dependency list.

The KDE screenlocker (not sure about others) attempts to run howdy as a user, not root. I had to remove the "chmod 600" line from the PKGBUILD to make it to work. Not sure how big a security difference this really is, but not something I'm worried about on a home computer.

Fresh install selecting python-dlib instead python-dlib-cuda

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/howdy", line 101, in <module> import cli.test File "/usr/lib/security/howdy/cli/test.py", line 9, in <module> import dlib ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dlib'

I'm getting update errors:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
howdy: /usr/lib/security/howdy/dlib-data/dlib_face_recognition_resnet_model_v1.dat exists in filesystem

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Fixed by changing each cp to cp -f.

I tried to install the current version and it gave me error. I also tried to install the PGKBUILD from j1simon link and it makes me again an error.

Don't know what to do.

I don't understand what's going on with this package. The maintainer is the author of the program and has updated the PKGBUILD in his github (https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy/tree/master/archlinux) but not here. ??

Why is this downloading an old version of pam-python from Sourceforge, cloning dlib from git and using Pip to install facial_recognition? Why not use python-pam from the community repo & python-face_recognition (depends on python-dlib) from the AUR?

i edited the pkgbuild to the updated version, since i dont know a lot about pkgbuilds i hope everything is fine.

works for me!
