Dependency on pylibjpeg-rle

hackermd opened this issue · comments

Why does this package depend on pylibjpeg-rle?

  1. Run-length encoding is not a JPEG codec.
  2. The pylibjpeg-rle requires a Rust compiler, which is not widely available.

I would suggest making pylibjpeg-rle (and probably also pylibjpeg-openjpeg) an extra install requirement (using extras_require).
