[Python-apps-team] Bug#821009: simple-image-reducer: EXIF reading results in crash (wrong import)

[Alexander Schlarb]

Package: simple-image-reducer
Version: 1.0.2-3
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

The upstream repository for this package imports the python `EXIF` library,
which seems to have been changed to `exifread` by Debian maintainers.
Unfortunately the place where the `EXIF` library was actually used in the
source code has not been changed to use the new name.
