Success! Though not without some drama along the way
I deleted the _imaging*.so files and reinstalled PIL - no
change. So I next
backed up and removed the entire PIL directory and
reinstalled - still no
change. Then I thought that maybe the files are created
first in the setup
directory and copied across. So I deleted all the setup
files and reinstalled
from the original tarball.
This time it looked like disaster - Python didn't even get
as far as Imaging,
but fell over somewhere in Tkinter with a message about
Tclerror(?). I went
back to the install and ran the setup test which seemed to
complete ok - I think
it said 55 tests passed. I reran my jpg test script, and
this time it worked!
I can't recall the exact Tcl error message, and it's
scrolled off screen by now,
so I just hope that it doesn't recur. It looks as if
everything is working.
Thanks for all the guidance.
Peter
