I tried to install zlib through MSYS2 in my venv and then to install willow, because that's what the mistake says it's missing, but I encountered the same error message without any success. I'm with 64 bit system.

Ok, i know it would be late but the problem may be because you have more than 1 Python. For example if you installed a Python from MSYS2 and include it's folder to PATH it will overwite the Python you're using. This happened because when you run python -m venv it will look up the PATH and see which Python is highest. If other Python for example in MSYS2 was higher than the one you are using it will take over. This Python would likely lack of dependencies for Pillow and make the installation in venv crash. You should check pip install Pillow in your global env to see if it work. Then the solutions are:

  1. You recreate the venv but this time use directly python from source it work like ./your path here/python.exe -m venv name. WARNING this will completely wipe out your venv.
  2. Remove the folder that have other Python in PATH and recreate the venv.

I had a similar issue with the raspi-2. As it's 32bit, I had issues even when I reverted to a version <10. The following approach worked for me

sudo apt-get install libtiff5-dev libjpeg-dev libopenjp2-7-dev zlib1g-dev libfreetype6-dev liblcms2-dev libwebp-dev tcl8.6-dev tk8.6-dev python3-tk libharfbuzz-dev li
bfribidi-dev libxcb1-dev

python3 -m pip install --upgrade Pillow --no-binary :all:

NOTE: it took a while to build

You say you're on a 64-bit system, but do you have a 32-bit version of Python installed?

From Pillow 10, precompiled 32-bit wheels are no longer provided:

https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/releasenotes/10.0.0.html#bit-wheels

pip is therefore trying to build from source, and you don't have the necessary dependencies.
