Patch to use the form of import of PIL that is pillow compatible

Fedora 19 is going to stop shipping python-imaging (PIL) and start shipping python-pillow instead.  Rationale can be found on the feature page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Pillow .  pillow should be compatible with PIL at the code level but the import statement changes slightly.

PIL supports both of these:

import Image

from PIL import Image

Pillow only supports the latter form.

I grepped through the impressive source and found some occurrences of "import Image".  I'll attach a patch that updates these to the new form of import.

Update is pushed and in koji:

I can confirm that this works with the old PIL. Please confirm that it goes smoothly with PILLOW also ;)

@Sandro Mani -> are you able to confirm that the new build works with your proposed python-pillow packages?
Comment 3 Sandro Mani 2013-01-17 21:10:39 UTC 
Doing a
$ impressive /some/file.pdf
seems to work just fine.

Thanks everyone.

Assuming that pillow doesn't go to F18, I'm closing this RAWHIDE.
