Hi,

I am trying to install PIL 1.7.7 on Mac OS X 10.6 running python 2.7.2

I am getting the following error: 

> $ python setup.py build_ext -i
> running build_ext
> --- using frameworks at /System/Library/Frameworks
> building '_imaging' extension
> gcc-4.0 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -dynamic -arch ppc -arch i386 -g -O2 -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -DHAVE_LIBJPEG -DHAVE_LIBZ -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Headers -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Headers -IlibImaging -I/sw/include/freetype2 -I/sw/include -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/include/python2.7 -c _imaging.c -o build/temp.macosx-10.3-fat-2.7/_imaging.o
> unable to execute gcc-4.0: No such file or directory
> error: command 'gcc-4.0' failed with exit status 1

I think it is because I don't have Python's build support files "python-dev", "python-devel", or similar. 

If that sounds like the culprit, can you tell me how I can get those for the Mac?  I've looked on the Python.org site but don't see any mention of those files. 


Thanks, 


Isaac
