[Image-SIG] PIL DPI trouble

[Luca De Santis]

That's exactly the same problem I incurred into.
I tried PIL  version 1.1.6 on a Mac OS X 10.4 and on an old Linux box
and can't get the DPI attribute for JPEG and PNG files that I've
created with Photoshop.

I tested that both on Python 2.5 and Python 2.1.3 with the same result.

I tried also to update libjpeg on Linux but nothing changes.

Any help on that is greatly appreciated.
TIA.

Ciao,
Luca
