My default version of Python was still on 2.6 so I had to switch to 2.7
defaults write com.apple.versioner.python Version 2.7
get v8c of jpeg
cd into jpeg directory.
sudo make clean
CC="gcc -arch i386" ./configure --enable-shared --enable-static
make
sudo make install
get imaging i am using 1.1.6
untar
cd into imaging
sudo rm -rf build
vi setup.py
JPEG_ROOT = libinclude(“/usr/local/lib”)
sudo python setup.py install
And it’s that simple
Run your python interpreter,
import PIL
import _imaging
import Image
if all is well, then your all set.
So it’s the same as with Snow Leopard only jpeg needs to be version upgraded.
correct
Hi Arno,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. However, in my case (upgrade from SL to Lion iMac 2009), the i386 libraries were the showstoppers. I have removed two i386 libjpeg.dylib files (one from Fink:/sw/llib – the other compiled from sources:/usr/local/lib) and left the macports version which was universal. Then all I had to do was
$ sudo pip install PIL
And everything works great, even after I put the removed libraries back.
