Description

In order to use the xasy program in the asymptote package, py-lib is required. Should this be added to the required libs list for asymptote?

Two notes: py-lib should read py-pil.

The initial error is: An error occurred loading the required PIL library. Please install http://effbot.org/downloads/Imaging-1.1.7b.tar.gz

The command line says: Exception AttributeError: "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'error'" in <bound method Popen.del of <subprocess.Popen object at 0x1011ad210>> ignored

I installed py-pil, but that doesn't work since the system python is 2.6. Using python_select python24 fails. Installing py-pil26 works but requires the install of a second python 2.6 (beyond the native one).

I (the maintainer of asymptote) agree. My thoughts on the matter were to make it into a port variant (although I'm not sure if this squares with the philosophy of port variants).

However I'm not certain when I'll get round to looking into this properly. If you have any suggestions (or patches) they are welcome.

Thanks,

Luis
