BTW,

Using nikola-5.4.4 build from the tarball

[Icaro Perseo]

seems to be having trouble with pil/pillow :-/

The most likely missing the following dependencies to make pillow/pil properly installed:

sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev libpng12-dev libgif-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev

It might be necessary to reinstall pil/pillow to compile successfully

Good Luck!!!

IIRC, This is a PIL bug, try getting Pillow :-P

I am not at home, but I am pretty sure I do have all those packages installed.

OK, how do I re-install pillow (as Roberto says, PIL is buggy now)?

sudo apt-get remove python-images

pip install Pillow

cd $NIKOLA_SRC

./setup.py clean

./setup.py build

./setup.py install

Now its working, and I am making my site. Thanks!
