For example,On windows I have been trying to download Pillow for Python 2.7 using Pycharm's inbuilt pip like feature. Whenever I try to download Pillow it gives me error.

ValueError: zlib is required unless explicitly disabled using --disable-zlib

I do not want to disable whatever functionality is provided by zlib by opting to disable it. I did download Zlib but not sure where to store it.

  • I am sorry for being a complete noob but as I can see on windows there are no direct commands to install a c library as there in Linux. – Aditya Kumar Gupta Jul 18 '16 at 05:19
  • Well, you never mentioned Windows, but if you search StackOverflow you will find other answers too, such as [this one](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34594800/how-to-install-pillow-on-windows-using-pip). – Selcuk Jul 18 '16 at 05:21

For windows, it is easiest to download the installer package. It is available from the pypi listing page. Scroll down the list of files and you should see Pillow-2.7.0.win32-py2.7.exe; click on that and run the executable to install Pillow.
