Unable to get PIL to load jpeg images

[Amit Khemka]

This is because PIL, is not able to find the jpeg library .

1. Install jpeg-libs from sources: (http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz)
2.0: "clean" the PIL build
2.1 In setup.py that comes with PIL, set the JPEG_ROOT to the jpeg-lib path
3.0 run setup.py

I hope that should help ..

cheers,
amit
