I have the same issue with 32-bit Ubuntu 12.04 and TeamViewer 8.

I made the following change in /usr/lib/python2.7/commands.py

Line 61:
Was before: sts = pipe.close()
Is now: if pipe is not None: sts = pipe.close()

Result: The error went away. (tried 3 reboots without any errors)

Since I'm totally unfamiliar with Python I hope someone who knows what they are doing will consider whether this could be a valid fix to this problem.
