在Mac OS 10.8.4上安装PIL时出错

Question

I am not sure why I am getting this error. Any help would be appreciated.

ld: library not found for -lSystem
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
error: command '/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit status 1

Answer 1

On a Mac, assuming you are using Homebrew, type:

brew install Homebrew/python/pillow

Pillow is basically the same as PIL.

Try following 2 commands if python has trouble locating the package.

mkdir -p ~/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages

echo '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages' > ~/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/homebrew.pth 

Answer 2

xcode-select --install

may be can help you.

Answer 3

I somewhat remember this exact problem. Have you installed the Xcode command line tools? That cured my headaches.

You can find it here.. https://developer.apple.com/xcode/

From Xcode's Preferences menu, install the Command Line Tools (Downloads/Components tab).
