Hi folks,
I just tried:
easy_install PIL
on Windows with Python 2.6
I got PIL 1.1.7, which is nice, but it got installed a bit oddly. I
couldn't do:
from PIL import Image
What it did is put everything into a directory that got added to the
easy_install.pth file.
The result is similar to the old style PIL dir, with a PIL.pth file,
except that you can't do "import PIL" anymore, as the egg dir has a big
'ol long name.
I'm a big fan of namespaces, so I really don't want all that stuff in
the root namespace. In fact, I've been removing the PIL.pth file
(probably only as a matter of principle, but it forces us to use the
import style I prefer).
I think the that the PIL directory should be put in the egg dir with
easy-install, but however it's done:
import PIL
should work.
-Chris
