Unable to install Python Imaging Library

[peter.mosley at talk21.com]

A few weeks ago I asked for advice about which GUI toolkit I should
learn, and receved several helpful answers.  In the end I went with
Tkinter.  This was because a) it was already installed on the machines
I am most likley to use, b) it is cross platform, and c) it was not as
complex as PyGtk - which I tried and was totally unable to decipher.

I am now at the point of trying to import the Python Imaging Library,
and I have reached a total standstill.  I downloaded a copy of Python
Imaging Library 1.1.5 Source Kit from the site
http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/. There did not seem to be any
prebuilt binaries suitable for my system (Python 2.2/Fedora Core 1), so
I loaded the source code.

The instructions said to try 'python setup.py install', followed by
more detailed instructions 'If you prefer to know what you're doing'. I
do prefer to know what I'm doing, but couldn't understand the following
instructions.  So I tried the simple route, but it failed with the
output shown below.

I have absolutely no idea how to proceed.  Can anyone point me in the
right direction to get over this hurdle?
