Combining two graphic images

[A J Wilson]

I downloaded PIL and tried to compile/install it.  However, when I try to
import it in python to test it I get the following error.

>>> import _imaging
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: ./_imaging.so: undefined symbol: jpeg_resync_to_restart
>>>

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong.
I am running Mandrake 7 on an intel box.

Also what other rpm packages do I need to have installed to make it work?

Thanks
Austin
