Hi, I'm trying to install PIL from source on my CentOS 4.5 server. The build summary reports that I have everything installed...
-------------------------------------------------------------------- PIL 1.1.6 BUILD SUMMARY -------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.1.6 platform linux2 2.3.4 (#1, Dec 11 2007, 05:28:55) [GCC 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9)] -------------------------------------------------------------------- --- TKINTER support ok --- JPEG support ok --- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support ok --- FREETYPE2 support ok ... but if I try and build it I receive the following error: /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.a(jcparam.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC How do I fix this? I am currently running "python setup.py build" and don't understand how I would change the compiling options to add the "- fPIC" flag. I'm quite a newbie when it comes to Linux/Python so any help you could give me would be great. Thanks, Nick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
