[pygame] Re: pygame sdl_image png/jpeg support



Hi Chris,
Thanks a lot for your response. I think I understand what you're
saying, that the png (or jpeg in your case) libs were installed
somewhere the setup script is not looking for them. However I am not
sure how to determine if this is my problem, and then how to fix it.
Are you able to give me and pointers on that front?
