I just had to change the name of the egg. Thanks! @Encolpe

The solution I found is simplier : $ cd /srv/plone/mmaspecial/satchmo-py25/lib/python2.5/site-packages $ ln -s PIL-1.1.7-py2.5-linux-x86_64.egg PIL This is enough to get it works with your egg and works with all eggs. Why it doesn't work with this egg... may be 'x86_64' that add an underscore where setuptools doesn't expect to find one. It seems that setuptools doesn’t find PIL egg.

I do: easy_install http://dist.repoze.org/PIL-1.1.6.tar.gz which is a repackaging that works with setuptools. Alternatively, download the source distribution and run its install manually: $ curl -O http://effbot.org/media/downloads/Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz $ tar zxvf Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz $ cd Imaging-1.1.7 $ python setup.py install Matt There are a few options, symlinking a different python’s egg of it isn’t a good idea.

This makes me believe the standard egg has an issue... I have had same time of problem recently which I solved under Mac OSX by easy installing PILwoTk.
