[Pythonmac-SIG] Trouble installing PIL package

[Ken Brooks]

OS:  Tiger 10.4.4
System: 1GHz / 1GB RAM
Python: 2.3.5

Using PackageManager to install PIL, came to following problem (at 
end of quoted text):

--------------------------------------------------------------------
PIL 1.1.5 BUILD SUMMARY
--------------------------------------------------------------------
version       1.1.5
platform      darwin 2.3.5 (#1, Mar 20 2005, 20:38:20)
               [GCC 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1809)]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
--- TKINTER support ok
--- JPEG support ok
--- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support ok
*** FREETYPE2 support not available
--------------------------------------------------------------------
To add a missing option, make sure you have the required
library, and set the corresponding ROOT variable in the
setup.py script.

To check the build, run the selftest.py script.

Permission denied
install PIL-1.1.5-source: running 
""/Applications/MacPython-2.3/PackageManager.app/Contents/MacOS/Python" 
setup.py install " failed

It really did fail:  when I try PIL's selftest.py, it says,
	*** The _imaging C module is not installed

If it was just a matter of copying files, I would use sudo and do it 
myself - but I've searched that setup.py script and I can't even find 
in it where the copy commands are being issued!

I also tried downloading PIL separately and saying:
	sudo python setup.py install
which got farther but still doesn't pass the selftest check.

Help??
