I was calling view -h deadbeef on the wrong project, silence that and
additionally prevent the same thing if the fallback fails.

Hi Bernhard,

Ah, good catch.

However:

I'm not sure I like the nested try blocks or the match-anything except
clauses. Could you rework this to something like this perhaps?

  patch = {}
  try:
      patch = ...
  except xmlrpclib.Fault:
      pass

  if patch == {}:
      try:
          patch = ...
      except (whatever-exception-here):
          pass

  if patch == {}
      return None



Cheers,


Jeremy
