Uninstall the preinstalled PIL

rated 0 times [ 7] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 25947 / 2 Years ago, sun, may 15, 2022, 8:45:41

I would like to install Pillow, but according to the Pillow's documentation, I must remove PIL first, ~~which seems to have come preinstalled in Ubuntu 13.10.~~

What's the best way to do that?
