Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-imaging

>>> import Image
>>> im = Image.open('/usr/share/backgrounds/edgy-final-ubuntu.png')
>>> im.show()
sh: xv: not found
>>> 

I have this problem in Feisty as well as Edgy.

Suggested solution:

$ cd /usr/bin
$ sudo ln -s display xv

Or, just fix the python-imaging package to not depend on historical non-
free software!

** Affects: python-imaging (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed

-- 
im.show() does not work because the system cannot find the program "xv"
