I recently failed trying to install Pillow 3.0.0 on my Ubuntu 14.04.
No matter what I do (download and try to sudo python setup.py install or sudo -H
sudo python setup.py install
sudo -H
Did you install the dependencies for pillow ? You can install them by
$ sudo apt-get build-dep python-imaging $ sudo apt-get install libjpeg8 libjpeg62-dev libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev
