"Can't import the Python Imaging Library"

I have downloaded the uniconvertor to convert from cdr to svg on Debian 10 (which has no more this package, so I have to download from source). Now when trying to execute:

$uniconv image.cdr image.svg, I got this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uniconvertor/__init__.py", line 64, in <module>
    from app.io import load
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uniconvertor/app/__init__.py", line 62, in <module>
    from conf.configurator import Configurator
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uniconvertor/app/conf/configurator.py", line 11, in <module>
    frm app.events import connector
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uniconvertor/app/__init__.py", line 114, in <module>
    _import_PIL()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uniconvertor/app/__init__.py", line 103, in _import_PIL
    warn.warn(warn.USER, "Can't import the Python Imaging Library")
NameError: global name 'warn' is not defined

Seems I have not "Imaging Library" and get error NameError: global name 'warn' is not defined, does it mean the function warn is not defined in that script?

You'll have to follow two steps.

  1. import warnings in your python file

  2. Install pillow, PIL is Dead. Use Pillow pip install Pillow.

It seems your app needs Python PIL library to work but you don't have it installed. Try installing it https://pypi.org/project/Pillow/.
