Cannot process images

[Neculai Dan Ciprian]

I believe it's a bug due to an update or something, I used phatch on ubuntu for some years now.

This is what I get when I try to process images:

Error 0:Unable to open file: /media/Work/alex /IMG_6794.JPG:
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'mode'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/phatch/phatch/core/api.py", line 493, in get_photo
    photo = pil.Photo(info_file, info_not_file)
  File "/usr/share/phatch/phatch/core/pil.py", line 471, in __init__
    layer.image)

    a = (self.mode == other.mode)

I can confirm this, I have the same problem in Fedora

For me too:

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'mode'

This happened right after the update to the latest Ubuntu 14.10 Beta 2

[Silviu Stahie (silviu-stahie-f)]

I can corfirm this has been fixed with the latest Python update.

[Neculai Dan Ciprian (enkumber)]

hey Silviu, I just upgraded python (sudo apt-get upgrade python) and the error still occurs ...
any ideea ?

[Silviu Stahie (silviu-stahie-f)]

Should have provided some context.

Upgraded from Ubuntu 14.04 to Ubuntu 14.10 Beta. Phatch stopped working. A few days later, during a dist-upgrade, new python-imaging and python-pil packages arrived and Phatch now works again (these are the packages that usually ruin Phatch with every new Ubuntu).

Oh, I'm still on 14.04 so ... no luck for me
