Trying to use filedepot and just using the standard doc example to play with (https://depot.readthedocs.org/en/latest/) under the sqlalchemy part.

When recreating my database table with gearbox setup-app i got an error about PIL being missing.

easy_install PIL which installed it but error persisted. Did some digging and then pip installed image. This removed the error but as a dependency installed django with it.

Thoughts?

PIL has been broken for a few years,
you should install "Pillow" whenever PIL is requested.

As Pillow is an optional dependency is not directly required by depot, you need to install it only if you use the Image and Thumbnail filters
