Ola Lindsey & DebianBuggers,
I sometimes have a feed which generates:
-----------------------------
=== rss2email encountered a problem with this feed ===
=== See the rss2email FAQ at http://www.allthingsrss.com/rss2email/ for
assistance ===
=== If this occurs repeatedly, send this to lind...@allthingsrss.com ===
E: could not parse http://soup.nibbler.tv/rss
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/rss2email/rss2email.py", line 711, in run
tagline = ",".join(taglist)
TypeError: sequence item 1: expected string or Unicode, NoneType found
rss2email 2.71
feedparser 5.1.3
html2text 3.200.3
Python 2.7.6 (default, Dec 30 2013, 14:37:40)
[GCC 4.8.2]
=== END HERE ===
-----------------------------
I don't know which exact line in the source RSS causes it, but it happens from
time to time; likely some parse going wrong.
Inserting at line 710 a 'print taglist' results in:
[u'image', None]
Hence the attached simple patch filters out the "None" and voila things keep on
working and I get my daily dose of silly pictures again thanks to nibbler ;)
Greets,
Jeroen
