[Python-modules-team] Bug#805475: missing some kind of dependency towards python-imaging

[Enrico Zini]

Package: python-fabulous
Version: 0.1.5+dfsg1-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

it looks like fabulous depends on python-imaging for some feature. Check out
this patronising error message:

  $ python
  Python 2.7.10+ (default, Oct 10 2015, 09:11:24) 
  [GCC 5.2.1 20151028] on linux2
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> from fabulous import text
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'scew'
  >>> print text.Text("Fabulous", color='#0099ff', shadow=True)
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabulous/text.py", line 101, in __init__
      utils.pil_check()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabulous/utils.py", line 170, in pil_check
      """ % {'pyversion': "%s.%s" % sys.version_info[:2]}))
  ImportError: 
  Oh no!  You don't have the evil PIL library!
  
  Here's how you get it:
  
  Ubuntu/Debian:
  
      sudo apt-get install python-imaging
  
  Mac OS X:
  
      http://pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/index.html
      http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html
  
  Windows:
  
      http://effbot.org/downloads/PIL-1.1.7.win32-py2.7.exe
  
  Everyone Else:
  
    This is like the hardest library in the world to
    manually install.  If your package manager doesn't have
    it, you can try running ``sudo easy_install pil`` once
    you get your hands on a C compiler as well as the
    following libraries (including the development headers)
    for Python, libz, libjpeg, libgif, libpng, libungif4,
    libfreetype6, and maybe more >_>
  
  
  >>> 


Thank you,

Enrico
