yup -- that will confuse things.

But when I link
against the static lib, the test script only runs fine because it
imports the tk module before the freetype one. Whereas when I just
import _imagingft, I get this:

import PIL._imagingft
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: dlopen(PIL/_imagingft.so, 2): Symbol not found: _FSOpenResFile
  Referenced from: PIL/_imagingft.so
  Expected in: dynamic lookup

This error does not occur if _imagingtk is imported first. So it looks
like we would have to link against some system library when building
_imagingft.

could be -- I'm clueless on that one, but if I try in it:

>>> import PIL._imagingft
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/PIL/_imagingft.so, 2): Symbol not found: _inflateEnd Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/PIL/_imagingft.so
  Expected in: dynamic lookup

What I don't know is if we should expect -imagingft to b importable all by itself, first. Though I wouldn't think it should depend on TK.

If I do:

>>> import PIL._imaging
>>> import PIL._imagingft

it works fine -- which makes sense --you'd never need to import _imagingft without importing _imaging first.


By the way, _imaging.so still depends on /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib, but I
suppose as this is a library that ships with OSX, this should be
available on all systems and so it should be fine. Is this correct?

yes -- that's correct.

I'd say if all the self-tests run, you're in pretty good shape.

Try the enclosed test, too -- it uses freetype, without TK (at least not explicitly)
