Unfortunately, @vpeter, that doesn’t seem to help. Rather than editing source anywhere, I just gave both of the following a try after invoking /opt/bin/python3:
>>> from PIL import _imaging
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name '_imaging' from 'PIL' (/opt/lib/python3.8/site-packages/PIL/__init__.py)
and, in a separate run:
>>> from PIL import ImageFont
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/opt/lib/python3.8/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line 33, in <module>
from . import Image
File "/opt/lib/python3.8/site-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 94, in <module>
from . import _imaging as core
ImportError: cannot import name '_imaging' from 'PIL' (/opt/lib/python3.8/site-packages/PIL/__init__.py)
For both, the import in question that actually fails is from PIL/Image.py itself, in the try/except block below. The exception that is supposed to get caught is indeed ImportError, but I don’t think any of the conditions listed match. This form of import is the “modern” version per the third warning box on this page:
Pillow >> Docs >> Installation
I’m wondering if pillow was built correctly for Entware…
Cheers,
