to get jpeg support in PIL: apt-get install libjpeg8-dev (not libjpeg62-dev) to get png support in PIL (libz.so is not where it expects it to be): sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libz.so /usr/lib I believe 64-bit Ubuntu will have libz.so in an also-wrong-but-different place for PIL. There are still some other things (Freetype, LittleCMS, TkInter) that I don't have working in PIL ....could be similar to above where you need alternate library or just symlinks. -- Nate On Thu, Feb 9, 2012 at 3:08 PM, Leo Shklovskii <[email protected]> wrote: > If you're on windows, go grab the precompiled binaries.
