UBUNTU 24.04 LTS #890
Comments
Is there any update on this?? |
For me howdy was removed during the installation of 24.04 as unsupported software. I made it work after re-installing it with following the steps on the guide. |
When adding the repository it says that the repository does not have a release file. When trying
Installing with the .deb file is also not possible because it will just stay at "preparing..." forever... Edit: That is the repository error:
|
Copied the package to Ubuntu Noble on launchpad, should be available within another hour or so. Thanks for reporting! |
Thank you the install and setup works. Unfortunately my laptop does not try to use howdy even after a reboot.. It is enabled in PAM and I setup face models. Edit: Even after a clean install of Ubutnu 24.04, which solved other issues I had, howdy's behavior is still the same. |
Also this error comes up during the install, I don't know if this causes a issues:

Hi, how did you install it on Ubuntu 24.04 with success? Because I have tried it according to description, added the repository, then after update I did install with apt, but at the end I got the following error message: |
What else did it say before the last error. Could you give the whole error? |
Yes /var/lib/dpkg/info/howdy.postinst:145: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\w'
error: externally-managed-environment × This environment is externally managed
note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of |
And something else to it: I installed it with success on MX23, that is debian 12. |
I have successfully installed howdy on 24.04 such that the test and configuration works fine. |
I did a manual installation with meson and the packages that should be on global pip like this |
I solved this by using: |
I have the exact same problem. Is there any fix for this? I already checked in |
I could solve the issue but only with howdy_2.6.1.deb. I know this is a little bit old version but works. |
unfortunately when trying to install the .deb you mentioned. It's just saying "preparing..." forever without actually installing anything... |
Interesting, I had only one problem with ConfigParser in pam.py, it should be changed to configparser. cat /etc/os-release cat /etc/debian_version dpkg -l | grep howdy dpkg -l | grep dlib I cannot give more info, sorry. |
Interesting, it looks just like mine. I tried installing the .deb within the terminal to get the error while installing and I got this:
|
I manually installed the beta version |
Thanks for the suggesting but I still get the same error while install howdy 3.0.0 BETA, even when trying to install the beta version. |
The distro packagers put that EXTERNALLY-MANAGED file there to prevent anything other than apt/dpkg managing libraries installed in the system python. You can read about it here: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/externally-managed-environments/ This is done to protect the system from breakage... ironically including security issues. So if you're thinking of moving that file, you can read more about what that actually does above. |
