Your suggestion for Sage binaries is: "1. Build libpng and libjpeg, static-only, and install to SAGE_LOCAL/ lib/. ... " This of course requires a build machine to have libjpeg built on it, say as part of the Sage build process. So that Sage works in a consistent manner across platforms, releases, and people building binaries, this should only happen if libjpeg is added to Sage itself as an spkg. I'm not necessarily opposed to that happening, since jpeg is a common format. -- William > And there seems to > be no technical reason to not statically link PIL against libjpeg.a. > > But there *is* a reason to not *dynamically* link against > libjpeg.dylib, libpng.dylib, or libtiff.dylib.
