The problem is in the name chosen by _lots_ of distributions. A "jpeg developer library" or any other of the "development libraries" are not just for those who intend to "develop" jpeg, but really for those who "develop programs" -- that is run compilers and linkers. If you need to compile and link a program that uses one of these libraries, you need the "developer library." Even if the only sense in which you are a developer is that you are rebuilding Fredrik's code. --Scott David Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
