Setting up Python 3 and pillow
I'm using Linux Mint 15 ("Olivia") for my pypeline development - and ran into a little difficulty
right off the bat getting pillow installed. Virtualenv and Virtualenvwrapper are pretty much a must-have if you're
developing multiple projects, and pip install pillow
was failing with messages like
Python.h: No such file or directory
despite following the instructions to a T. Turns out since I'm using Python 3,
sudo apt-get install python-dev
doesn't cut it. What you want is sudo apt-get install python3-dev
.
Run that once and you should be good to go in your virtualenv.
