Comment:
When installing `PIL` using `setup.py install` or via `pip` you get clear
warnings that support for a specific format is not available.
{{{
--------------------------------------------------------------------
*** TKINTER support not available (Tcl/Tk 8.5 libraries needed)
*** JPEG support not available
*** ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support not available
*** FREETYPE2 support not available
*** LITTLECMS 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.
}}}
IMHO the warning raised by `PIL`'s setup nails it but I'd like to hear
someone else about that.
