Hello!
I attempted to build Pillow with libraqm support, and had a lot of difficulties to get it to work. Specifically, the raqm and webp libraries would never be found without some edition.
With the following context returned by pkg-config:
$ pkg-config --list-all
libturbojpeg libturbojpeg - A SIMD-accelerated JPEG codec that provides the TurboJPEG API
libwebp libwebp - Library for the WebP graphics format
liblzma liblzma - General purpose data compression library
libbrotlienc libbrotlienc - Brotli encoder library
libopenjp2 openjp2 - JPEG2000 library (Part 1 and 2)
libwebpmux libwebpmux - Library for manipulating the WebP graphics format container
libdeflate libdeflate - Fast implementation of DEFLATE, zlib, and gzip
libpng16 libpng - Loads and saves PNG files
libsharpyuv libsharpyuv - Library for sharp RGB to YUV conversion
freetype2 FreeType 2 - A free, high-quality, and portable font engine.
libbrotlidec libbrotlidec - Brotli decoder library
zlib zlib - zlib compression library
libpng libpng - Loads and saves PNG files
lcms2 lcms2 - LCMS Color Management Library
libwebpdemux libwebpdemux - Library for parsing the WebP graphics format container
libtiff-4 libtiff - Tag Image File Format (TIFF) library.
bzip2 bzip2 - Lossless, block-sorting data compression
libbrotlicommon libbrotlicommon - Brotli common dictionary library
raqm raqm - A library for complex text layout
libjpeg libjpeg - A SIMD-accelerated JPEG codec that provides the libjpeg API
libwebpdecoder libwebpdecoder - Library for the WebP graphics format (decode only)
I'm supposed to have all the required dependencies, but both errors would occur when installing:
