Fredrik, Thank you for the reply. So I did the following: 1. I downloaded jpeg (from ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/ ) source libraries( file jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz) and installed them. Now in /usr/local/lib I have the following files: cjpeg ,djpeg,jpegtran,rdjpgcom and wrjpgcom 2. I opened setup.py file in Imaging 1.1.5 directory and changed JPEG_ROOT =None into JPEG_ROOT = "/usr/local/lib/" 3.ran python setup.py build_ext -i but it still says *** JPEG support not available What did I wrong? Can you please help? Thank you L. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
