Environment

Device: MacBook Pro M1 (Apple Silicon)

Architecture: arm64

macOS: 15.7.3 (24G407)

Install method: Homebrew

picture-rotation-fixer version: 0.0.6

What I did
I made a small test folder with 5 scanned portrait photos. All are upside down, and faces are clearly visible.

Command used:

picture-rotation-fixer /Users/elvin/Desktop/test1

Observed output

100%|█████████████████████████████████████████████| 5/5 [00:03<00:00, 1.48it/s]

Expected behavior

The tool should rotate upside-down portrait images (180°) so faces are upright.

Actual behavior

No images appear to be rotated at all.

After running, the files are still upside down.

Diagnostics
Attempting to check version via flag:

picture-rotation-fixer --version

Output:

usage: picture-rotation-fixer [-h] [folder]
picture-rotation-fixer: error: unrecognized arguments: --version

Brew version info:

picture-rotation-fixer 0.0.6

System info:

arm64
ProductName: macOS
ProductVersion: 15.7.3
BuildVersion: 24G407

Notes

These are scanned photos, so they may not include EXIF Orientation tags.

Faces are clearly visible, so I expected the face-based orientation logic to rotate them correctly.

Happy to attach a zip of the 5 test images (or a couple of representative ones) if you confirm preferred format / any privacy constraints.
