Hi

I am having some trouble getting Django & PIL work properly since upgrading to Snow Leopard.

I have installed freetype, libjpeg and then PIL, which tells me:

--- TKINTER support ok
--- JPEG support ok
--- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support ok
--- FREETYPE2 support ok

but when I try to upload a jpeg through the django admin interface I get:

Upload a valid image. The file you uploaded was either not an image or a corrupted image.

It works fine with PNG files.

Any Ideas?

However, if I do "apt-get install python-imaging" or use "pip -E test_pil install PIL", all work fine. Here are examples of how I trying to install PIL using virtualenv: #… >>> More
