[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#730166: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Package: python-tifffile

For some reason tifffile does not work anymore:

$ tifffile
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/tifffile", line 7, in <module>
    sys.exit(tifffile.main())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/tifffile.py", line 2976, in main
    description=search_doc("\n\n([^|]*?)\n\n", ''),
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/tifffile.py", line 2973, in <lambda>
    search_doc = lambda r, d: re.search(r, __doc__).group(1) if __doc__ else d
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'
