Calibre will build but won't install on bluewhite64 linux distro

Ok, I'm trying a new 64 bit distro since my last problem this one is called bluewhite64 linux (I was using slamd64 last time) :

Calibre will build just fine but I get this error message when installing calibre :

Ok, I recompiled python with sqlite support but now I get this error message while installing :

I think my PIL installation might be broken somehow. I have the proper versions of PIL(python imaging library), python and freetype fonts etc.. etc.. installed

I'd suggest recompiling PIL from source as well

Thumbs up I got calibre to install

I finally got calibre to install. I didn't have to recompile/rebuild PIL. The C _imaging module from PIL was missing a python library dependency because I ./configured python to install without the "--enabled-shared" option which deprived it of a library it needed. I traced the missing library that lead to my discovery by importing _imaging in the python shell the error it gave was a missing library error. So I merely enabled that option during python configuration and I got it to install.
