Re: PIL on 10.6 = PAIN

To work with PIL and other librairies a little bit weird and difficult
to install the best way is to install Macport and after that:

port install py26-pil

and you'll need to use the python of the macport installation:

$ /opt/local/bin/python2.6

It's the samething on linux, i'm alway using the PIL package from my distro...
