I had the ValueError  zlib is required unless explicitly disabled using --disable-zlib but upgrading pip from 7 x to 8 y resolved the problem   So I would try to update tools before anything else   That can be done using   pip install --upgrade pip

Thank you  mfitzp  In my case  CentOS  these libs are not available in the yum repo  but actually the solution was even easier  What I did   sudo yum install python-devel sudo yum install zlib-devel sudo yum install libjpeg-turbo-devel   And now pillow s installation finishes successfully

There is a bug reported for Pillow here  which indicates that libjpeg and zlib are now required as of Pillow 3 0 0    The installation instructions for Pillow on Linux give advice of how to install these packages  Note that not all of the following packages may be missing on your machine  comments suggest that only libjpeg8-dev is actually missing    pip   PyPi  Pillow 3 4 2   The latest releases of Pillow are available on PyPi as wheels     the new standard packaging mechanism for Python  These prebuilt packages include all neccessary binary dependencies to allow Pillow to run and should be used if you want to install Pillow using PyPi  To use wheels  you need to have a version of pip gt  1 4  If you are using an earlier version  pip --version  upgrade pip using the following   pip install --upgrade pip    Once pip is upgraded  pip install will use platform-specific wheel files by default if they are available  Use the following command to upgrade Pillow to the latest version available on PyPi   pip install --upgrade pillow   Ubuntu 12 04 LTS or  Raspian Wheezy 7 0  sudo apt-get install libtiff4-dev libjpeg8-dev zlib1g-dev libfreetype6-dev liblcms2-dev libwebp-dev tcl8 5-dev tk8 5-dev python-tk   Ubuntu 14 04  sudo apt-get install libtiff5-dev libjpeg8-dev zlib1g-dev libfreetype6-dev liblcms2-dev libwebp-dev tcl8 6-dev tk8 6-dev python-tk   Ubuntu 18 04  sudo apt install libjpeg8-dev zlib1g-dev   Fedora 20  The Fedora 20 equivalent of libjpeg8-dev is libjpeg-devel   sudo yum install libtiff-devel libjpeg-devel libzip-devel freetype-devel lcms2-devel libwebp-devel tcl-devel tk-devel   Mac OS X  via Homebrew   On Mac OS X with Homebrew this can be fixed using   brew install libjpeg zlib   You may also need to force-link zlib using the following   brew link zlib --force   Update April 2019  In Mojave the above will not work and you need to run the following as taken from this bug report on Pillow  sudo installer -pkg  Library Developer CommandLineTools Packages macOS SDK headers for macOS 10 14 pkg -target     Update July 2016  There is no longer a formula for zlib available in the main repository  Homebrew will prompt you to install lzlib which is a different library and will not solve this problem     There is a formula available in the dupes repository  You can either tap this repository  and install as normal   brew tap homebrew dupes brew install zlib   Or you can install zlib via xcode instead  as follows   xcode-select --install   Thanks to phoenix  Panos Angelopoulou  nelsonvarela  benjaminz and Kal in the comments  After these are installed the pip installation of Pillow should work normally
