we're not planning on generating a PIL canvas as yet. The renderPM 
canvas uses PIL for various conversions. We have three people working on 
linux machines so perhaps one of them can do the dpkg thing for the 
_renderPM C extension.

I found this quite hard in the past with all the different versions of 
libc etc etc, but perhaps things have improved somewhat.
