[11:27:03] <aclark> koobs: if you are expecting to have the results of the egg modified, you are especially out of luck (because that is even further from how it works…)
[11:30:30] <koobs> i must look at what these setopt things do
[11:31:04] <koobs> too tired to figure it out, thanks though aclark, ill have a 2nd crack at it tomorrow
[11:31:58] <aclark> koobs: i know we don't support anything but bdist_ext for those options, whether or not that affects bdist_egg if you tack one on to the arg string i don't know
[11:32:25] <aclark> I would expect it to work, but i haven't tried
[12:00:42] <exalt> hello i wrote some code for a friend, i had no trouble at all but now he ueses it he gets an: "ioerror: decoder group 3 not available" error
[12:00:59] <exalt> its an app that opens tiff images
[12:01:09] <exalt> any idea what could be the problem ?
[12:12:41] <aclark> exalt: tiff libs not installed?
[12:22:47] <exalt> aclark: you know a packet name for the tiff libs ?
[16:04:22] <Ontological> I've installed pillow in a virtual environment and I'm getting this error: ImportError: The _imaging C module is not installed. Any suggestions?
[16:04:44] <Ontological> I've installed these packages before installing pillow: apt-get install libjpeg8 libjpeg8-dev libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev zlib1g-dev
[19:09:44] <jaimy> Hello, i tried all day to install pil the right way, so i am able to convert a tiff image to RGBA
[19:10:02] <jaimy> any idea if it requires some dependensies ?
[19:11:32] <jaimy> pil complains about decoder group3 not being available
[20:36:56] <wiredfool> jaimy: you need libtiff + libtiff-dev
[20:37:09] <wiredfool> exact names depend on your distro/os
[21:34:24] <aclark> jaimy: try Pillow instead of PIL
[22:15:00] <freyes> hey there, is there any effort on going to rewrite the functions documentation using docstrings?
[22:15:55] <freyes> I'm using pillow and I don't mind start doing this manually, but I'm not sure if there is somebody else preparing some tool to this in an automated way
[22:16:30] <aclark> freyes: nope, go ahead (start small though so we can get PR merged)
