Description
As noted above, I cannot use howdy as when attempting to run howdy it fails as seen in the screenshot below

Any help or advice would be much appreciated, and thank you for this program, I have been using it since I began using Linux about 2 years ago and it is really one of the most impactful programs I have yet used.

Research direction
Start with the screenshot's reported dlib module error and compare how howdy invokes Python with where dlib is installed. Reproduce the howdy command in the affected environment and verify the interpreter and module pairing. Done means howdy starts without the dlib import failure, but the issue needs operating-system, Python, and installation details before implementation can be scoped.
