Python with PIL and Libjpeg on Leopard
- by thescreamingdrills
I'm having trouble getting pictures supported with PIL - it throws me this: "IOError: decoder jpeg not available"
I installed PIL from binary, not realizing I needed libjpeg.
I installed libjpeg and freetype2 through fink.
I tried to reinstall PIL using instructions from http://timhatch.com/ (bottom of the page)
"* Download PIL 1.1.6 source package and have the Developer Tools already installed
* Patch setup.py with this patch so it can find the Freetype you already have. (patch -p0 < leopard_freetype2.diff)
* sudo apt-get install libjpeg if you have fink (otherwise, build by hand and adjust paths)"
But I'm still getting the same error.
I'm on Leopard PPC.
