I am trying to allow JPEG's to be used for portraits inside of Plone. I
have Googled and found I need to install the Pytphon Imaging Library (PIL);
after that all should be good. I did that, but I an error that tells me
there is a missing library. The below is a log of what I did. From what I
can tell Python sees the library but .. (I'm used to Perl so I have no
idea). I am working on a RHEL v4 x64 system.
Thank you in advance for your time.
