Error installing Pillow

Question:

I’m trying to install Pillow for Python and i run this command on the terminal

sudo pip install Pillow

and i get this error

clang: error: no such file or directory: 'build/temp.macosx-10.10-intel-2.7/_imagingtk.o'

clang: error: no such file or directory: 'build/temp.macosx-10.10-intel-2.7/Tk/tkImaging.o'

Answers:

This might be the same as this bug in Pillow 2.5.0.

It’s been fixed, to be released soon in 2.5.1.

To test the dev version:

sudo pip install git+https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow.git

Or install version 2.4.0:

sudo pip install pillow==2.4.0

Edit: Pillow 2.5.1 has now been released so you can just do:

sudo pip install pillow
