Python PIL cannot locate my “libjpeg”

Question

I cannot use PIL because it cannot find my libjpeg!

First, I installed PIL default. And when I ran the selftest.py, it gave me:

IOError: dec         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issue. In my case, I need to set:

JPEG_ROOT="/usr/lib64/"

instead of:

JPEG_ROOT="/usr/lib/"

Good luck.
