Nearly Back
The last hurdle before being able to star working on the server again appears to be to get the Python Image Library installed and working. On my last machine this was a non-issue. It installed and worked without a hitch. On this x86_64 FC4 install the PIL build can’t seem to locate any of the libraries it needs, resulting in a failing self test with: “IOError: decoder jpeg not available” and a failure complaining about the zip decoder not being available if I run my code against it.
I didn’t exactly try hard to rebuild the machine over the past few days. I poked at it occasionally while generally lazing about playing WoW and other unproductive activities. There’s only this last problem as an excuse though, so I should be back making progress this week. All I have to do is remember what I was doing.
