I was able to import it into the Scribus python by adding it's path from a different python to the sys.path list. I was using it to do some image stuff.

And another question is if a script asks for PIL, will finding Pillow on your system work too, or does the script need to be edited? One thing might be to alter the script to a try: else: syntax.
