Error by sudo pip install pil on Mac 10.9.1

Solution

There's a fork of PIL called Pillow that most probably will solve your issue.

Problem

I am trying to install PIL on Mac 10.9.1 I get an error message which I can not get to find here. I have already installed Python27, pip, DJango, now I try to install: ``` sudo pip install pil ``` The message I receive: ``` Downloading/unpacking PIL Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement PIL Some externally hosted files were ignored (use --allow-external PIL to allow). Cleaning up... No distributions at all found for PIL Storing debug log for failure in /Users/xxx/Library/Logs/pip.log ``` Anyone have an idea how to resolve this error, please? On Xcode I have checked if Command Line Tools is installed but it doesn't appear under Xcode->preferences->Download. Many thanks for your help
