While I personally tend to want more things standard in sage, I realize that's related to the fact that I've never really tried to help port sage to things like Windows and Solaris. I think to be consistent we would need to have libtiff and libjpeg as optional packages for a while, and make them standard if they pass the usual hurdles (conform to the spkg requirements on the wiki, build and pass tests on all supported platforms, and get a passing developer vote). But I am +1 to their eventual inclusion, I don't Sage can be taken seriously for image processing until they are standard.
By the way, I have tried the libjpeg spkg and it worked well on an intel mac running 10.4.11. Thanks for creating that! -Marshall On Oct 28, 9:08 pm, Tim Joseph Dumol <t...@timdumol.com> wrote: > As stated inhttp://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7273, PIL has > dependencies on libtiff and libjpeg that can break the build. > > There are several options: > > (1) PIL can be crippled -- have libtiff and libjpeg disabled even if the > local system has them, > > (2) libtiff and libjpeg be included as standard libraries along with PIL, or > > (3) PIL, libtiff, and libjpeg be included as optional libraries. > > Here are the new packages: > > libtiff:http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/timdumol/libtiff-3.9.1.p0.spkg > > libjpeg:http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/timdumol/libjpeg-7.p0.spkg > > PIL:http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/timdumol/pil-1.1.6.p1.spkg > > Links are also posted in the trac ticket. > > Can we have a vote on what to do? > > - Tim Joseph Dumol <tim (at) timdumol (dot) com> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
