Context of the issue.

The described steps for installing dlib and other dependencies are causing issues and are more complicated than needed.

Suggested Changes

  • brew install python
  • brew install opencv
  • brew install boost
  • brew install boost-python
  • brew install dlib
  • Download current dlib 0.19
    ** python dlib installation is simply "python setup.py install" in the dlib directory
  • never use sudo, neither for pip nor for brew. Everything should be user writeable in brew

If you want I can create a pull request for the docs

OS and hardware information.

  • Mac 10.10

Hi @tilmans -sure, thanks. Can you send in a PR adding a new section By hand (OSX)? For now let's also keep the current sections as they are because they're still useful in Linux.

@tilmans I tried to follow your steps but I'm getting segmentation 11 error from import dlib
I have anaconda distro and I'm not sure what has happened now - as I tried to do everything without having a fair idea.

Can you please make one with screenshots? list all of your dependencies ?
