Howdy doesn't see dlib even though installed with pip

[NotoriousD69420]

I am currently trying to install howdy (2.6.1) on Debian Trixie (Cinnamon DE), and am following this guide (first commment). I have completed the instructions as per u/Helipil0t has posted. When I use the command "sudo howdy add" to add my face as one that can be recognized, I get this error:

sudo howdy add
No module named 'dlib'

Can't import the dlib module, check the output of
pip3 show dlib

I have installed dlib through pip3, and this is the result of the command "pip3 show dlib":

pip3 show dlib

if someone would be able to help out, that would be just great. It also caused problems with my password after coming back from screen lock (password only necessary).
