Dear All,

I am trying to build PIL 1.1.4 on a RedHat Enterprise AS 3 Update 3 box,
but it fails at the process:

   python setup.py build

in that it complains:

_imagingtk.c:20:16: tk.h: No such file or directory

and then crashed out. 
There were no errors reported when I followed the installation README file
until this step.

I have attached an extract of the error here.

I then tried to copy a tk.h file from a RedHat 9 system, and repeated the
build process.
It gives more tk.h syntax errors unfortunately.

Anyone has got any idea how to fix this?

By the way, the system has the following installed:

freetype-2.1.4-4.0
gnome-python2-1.99.14-5
gnome-python2-bonobo-1.99.14-5
gnome-python2-canvas-1.99.14-5
gnome-python2-gtkhtml2-1.99.14-5
libjpeg-6b-30
libxml2-python-2.5.10-6
mod_python-3.0.3-3.ent
MySQL-python-0.9.1-6
python-2.2.3-5
python-devel-2.2.3-5
python-optik-1.4.1-2
rh-postgresql-python-7.3.6-7
rpm-python-4.2.3-10
zlib-1.1.4-8.1
zlib-devel-1.1.4-8.1

I have noticed that most of the libraries are residine under /usr/lib
rather than /usr/local/lib as expected in Setup.

Thank you.

Regards,
