[Image-SIG] JPEG problems by installing ...

[Aureli Soria Frisch]

Hi all,

I am using PIL under Mac OS X and trying to display an image with:

im.show()

I got an error message telling me that the jpeg encoder is not 
available so I installed again PIL by making the changes in the 
setup.py (JPEG_ROOT="/sw/lib","/sw/include" (since I use the libjpeg 
from fink). Now the setup.py build gives me the message:

>running build_ext
>--------------------------------------------------------------------
>PIL 1.1.5 BUILD SUMMARY
>--------------------------------------------------------------------
>version       1.1.5
>platform      darwin 2.3 (#1, Sep 13 2003, 00:49:11)

>--------------------------------------------------------------------
>*** TKINTER support not available
>--- JPEG support ok
>--- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support ok
>--- FREETYPE2 support ok
>--------------------------------------------------------------------

but the selftest.py still launches an error on the availability of 
JPEG decoder...

By doing im.show() still have the original error message that the jpg 
encoder is not available... I am quite lost and would appreciate any 
help...

Thanks in advance
