There is currently a bug in the Anaconda repositories whereby Anaconda ship, by default, a package they call 'imaging'. This seems to be some custom version of Pillow, as it still namespaces the PIL Image class. Pillow, on the other hand, is incorrectly linked against the libraries that Anaconda ships on Windows, and so lots of things will fail. I've opened this bug here:

https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-issues/issues/30#issuecomment-42466975

I've resolved this at the moment by requiring the `imaging` package instead of `pillow` within my conda build script (for a project I maintain).

Hey Stefan,

Pillow is in conda, imread is not. My experimentation over the last 15 minutes suggests that it will be much more of a challenge to install imread than pillow. (I'm also not sure whether imread supports Python 3 and that's why things are failing.)

I also just saw @jjhelmus's email so maybe PIL should throw its hat into the ring...

My suggestion last time was to make 'imread' a requirement--what do you think?
