Hi, I know there are many people experiencing the same problem, and there are different solutions around, but I am still unable to compile PIL with JPEG support.
I am on a shared webhost (bluehost) and have build python 2.5. I am now trying to build PIL. I have build jpeg-6b from http://www.ijg.org/ in /home/spafenet/lib/lib/jpeg (that now contains bin/ and man/) My setup.py looks like this (relevant part:): --------------------------------------------------------------------- # -------------------------------------------------------------------- # Library pointers. # # Use None to look for the libraries in well-known library locations. # Use a string to specify a single directory, for both the library and # the include files. Use a tuple to specify separate directories: # (libpath, includepath). Examples: # # JPEG_ROOT = "/home/libraries/jpeg-6b" # TIFF_ROOT = "/opt/tiff/lib", "/opt/tiff/include" # # If you have "lib" and "include" directories under a common parent, # you can use the "libinclude" helper: # # TIFF_ROOT = libinclude("/opt/tiff") FREETYPE_ROOT = None JPEG_ROOT = "/home/spafenet/lib/lib/jpeg/bin" TIFF_ROOT = None ZLIB_ROOT = "/home/spafenet/lib/lib/zlib/lib","/home/spafenet/lib/lib/zlib/include" TCL_ROOT = None ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have also tried JPEG_ROOT = "/home/spafenet/lib/lib/jpeg/" but that doesn't work either. Building report (for both options): -------------------------------------------------------------------- PIL 1.1.6 BUILD SUMMARY -------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.1.6 platform linux2 2.5 (r25:51908, Dec 18 2006, 13:56:40) [GCC 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-3)] -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 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. To check the build, run the selftest.py script. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- It works with the ZLIB though. As it takes my 1.2.3 version over the preinstalled 1.2.1.2 version. (got a warning previously). But it refuses to accept the JPEG. Any suggestions? _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
