New install cannot find face detection models

[monkeyswarm]

Face mesh (and holistic) solutions missing tflite models. (Other solutions such as hand tracking are working fine)

Follow documentation to install and run on MacOS via bazel and C++
On running
$ GLOG_logtostderr=1 bazel-bin/mediapipe/examples/desktop/face_mesh/face_mesh_cpu --calculator_graph_config_file=mediapipe/graphs/face_mesh/face_mesh_desktop_live.pbtxt

Fails due to missing tflite model:

System information (Please provide as much relevant information as possible)

• Have I written custom code (as opposed to using a stock example script provided in Mediapipe): no
• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04, Android 11, iOS 14.4): 2018 MacBook Pro (not M1) on MacOS 12.5.1
• MediaPipe version: top of tree, last commit Thu Sep 8
• Bazel version: 5.2.0
• Solution (e.g. FaceMesh, Pose, Holistic): Face mesh (and holistic)
• Programming Language and version ( e.g. C++, Python, Java): C++

Describe the expected behavior:
Solutions run as described in setup docs.

Standalone code you may have used to try to get what you need :
No additional code has been written.

Note that I then tried Iris detection, with a similar failure.
I then ran the 'face detection' solution, which, surprisingly, worked.
I went back and tried Iris and Face Mesh, which then started working.

Seems like only running 'Face Detection' solution will download the model? And other solutions find it after?

Hi @sureshdagooglecom , what about issue #2516 is related to this issue? I am on a different bazel version, and not on an M1 mac. I don't see any mention of builds not finding models in that thread. Please advise.

I wasted whole of day to find why. Please, write somewhere : the demos are needed building sequentially.

Closing as stale. Please reopen if you'd like to work on this further.
