I meet the same problem when I run face_recognition programs on Mac.

They just mean they deleted any *.pyc files that were in that folder.

after installing dliv with setup.py, had that problem. solved by opening "Available packages" and installing dlib from there. (had to pip install numpy also)

[Hamiltonsjtu]

re-install dlib works for me.
pip uninstall dlib
pip install dlib
OS: windows 10

[bamwani]

lol you just can't name the file as "dlib.py" coz you're importing dlib. which will result in importing itself. so just rename the file to anything.py.

[Geethavani-droid]
