[Image-SIG] Need help installing PIL 1.1.5 on OSX (LONG)

[Jack Wu]

Hi Bob,

I used this package:
PIL-1.1.5-py2.4-macosx10.4.zip

It was an OSX GUI installer, which completed successfully.

"This leads me to believe that you're not loading the installed PIL
when running this selftest.py. The PIL on that page definitely works
fine, and it's got nothing to do with 10.3.9. You should try actually
using it."
-Ok, I installed it already....hence my previous email where I stated
that the _imaging.so package in my main Python directory changed sizes
to 931KB.
Are you suggesting I run self-test.py from inside the
"PIL-1.1.5-py2.4-macosx10.4.zip" package?  What directory would that
be in, as all I see is a single package file, and it doesn't give any
documentation as to where it installed PIL?

"-rw--w----   1 bob  admin  1770444 Apr 19 09:23"
What file is this?  Is my _imaging.so supposed to be 1770KB?

Thanks for the help,

-Jack
