I am trying to use PIL and when building it, PIL fails to find my jpeg library. I am using a python 2.4.3 that I build myself on Suse linux 9.3. I do have the following jpeg libraries:
rpm -qa | grep jpeg jpeg-6b-738 libjpeg-32bit-9.3-7 libjpeg-6.2.0-738 yet, when building PIL I get: python setup.py build_ext -i running build_ext -------------------------------------------------------------------- PIL 1.1.5 BUILD SUMMARY -------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.1.5 platform linux2 2.4.2 (#4, Jul 27 2006, 14:34:30) [GCC 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)] -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** TKINTER support not available *** JPEG support not available --- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support ok *** FREETYPE2 support not available -------------------------------------------------------------------- To add a missing option, make sure you have the required library, and set the corresponding ROOT variable in the setup.py script. I don't know what ROOT variable the message is referring too. Any advice would be appreciated. -- David Bear -- let me buy your intellectual property, I want to own your thoughts -- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
