OpenJPEG Installation
=====================
OpenJPEG should be version 1.4, 1.5, or the trunk/development
version of OpenJPEG. The official 2.0.0 release or versions earlier than 1.3.0
are not supported. Furthermore, the 1.X versions of OpenJPEG are
currently only utilized for read-only purposes. In order to write JPEG 2000
images, you must compile the the trunk/development version. For more information
about OpenJPEG, please consult http://www.openjpeg.org.
Glymur will read JPEG 2000 images with versions 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 2.0,
and the trunk/development version of OpenJPEG. Writing images is
only supported with the 2.0 series, however, and the trunk/development
version is strongly recommended. For more information about OpenJPEG,
please consult http://www.openjpeg.org.
If you use MacPorts on the mac or if you have a sufficiently recent
version of Linux, your package manager should already provide you
with a version of OpenJPEG 1.X with which glymur can already use
for read-only purposes. If your platform is windows, I suggest
using the 1.5.1 windows installer provided to you by the OpenJPEG
using the windows installers provided to you by the OpenJPEG
folks at https://code.google.com/p/openjpeg/downloads/list .

Many tests are currently skipped; in fact most of them are skipped if you
are relying on OpenJPEG 1.4 or 1.5. The important thing, though, is whether or
are relying on OpenJPEG 1.X. The important thing, though, is whether or
not any tests fail.
