I've followed the document at http://www.zope.org/Members/regebro/PIL_zope and gotten a lot of help from this list, and have made progress, but still cannot get it to work in Zope.
At the end of the doc mentioned above, after all the compiling is done, it says to:
cp -r PIL *.so /the/zope/installation/lib/python/
to complete the installation. I did that, and still get the message that "The _imaging C module is not installed". I then did some Googling to see if something could shed light on this, and I found a (non-zope) site that recommended installing PIL in the [python]/site-packages directory, and to use "python -v" to help discover what was being loaded from where. So I tried that with the python 2.2 that RedHat installed, and ran "python -v" to start. The startup text included the version information "Python 2.2.1 (#1, Aug 30 2002, 12:15:30)". I then type the following, and got the following respose. As a side note:
You must not run Zope with Python 2.2.1! You *MUST* use either Python 2.1.3 or Python 2.2.2. Do this same (starting with -v) with the Python, you use Zope with:
import PIL.Image ....
