Would you mind explaining a bit more?  Do we have violations of this
rule?  I don't get failures here myself, so is it a rule added in some
newer version of flake8 than what I'm running?

Thanks,

Ben.

I think it's probably from a newer version of flake8 (3.5.0, mccabe:
0.6.1, pycodestyle: 2.3.1, pyflakes: 1.6.0).  Without this patch, I get
the following errors (probably I should have included this in my commit
message - apologies):

I assumed that since it appears in many files, it's probably okay to be
ignoring this error (bare except hides the exception, which is usually
'bad form').  Maybe another approach would be to try and fix them all,
but that means understanding which exceptions should be handled and
allowing the rest to bubble up to the user.  That would take more time
than I have, though.

Thanks for the extra info.  Would you mind reposting with that added
information?

Sure, just did.  Almost forgot to send this, though.  Thanks for the
