I'm using Kubuntu 16.04. I'm trying to install the TFLearn library, but it requires Pillow, which it tried to install but was failing. Installing Pillow on its own also doesn't work.

You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 8.1.2 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

As mentioned in , do sudo apt install libjpeg-dev zlib1g-dev to install the necessary dependencies for Pillow.
