#116 python-pillow version 6.x breaks mcomix

[Timo Thurow]

In run.py the assert "assert PIL.Image.VERSION >= '1.1.5' " at line 205 fails since the "VERSION" attribute is deprecated and was replaced by version.
Source: https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/blob/master/docs/deprecations.rst#version-constant

Console Output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/mcomix", line 11, in <module>
load_entry_point('mcomix==1.2.1', 'console_scripts', 'mcomix')()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mcomix/run.py", line 206, in run
assert PIL.Image.VERSION >= '1.1.5'
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'VERSION'</module>

Thank you very much for your help. I fixed it in [486f02eef164df451a72598ce5989a1b37b49c60].

PIL.Image.VERSION is not the only incompatibility in Pillow 6.x. The behavior of _getexif is alse changed and broken in png file with exif data.
See https://github.com/multiSnow/mcomix3/issues/76 for more infomation.

Thanks for the info. Also, thanks for all the other tickets you opened recently. I will have a look into them when I find the time to do so.

After I changed run.py I have another problem:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/mcomix", line 11, in <module>
load_entry_point('mcomix==1.2.1', 'console_scripts', 'mcomix')()

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mcomix/run.py", line 207
except AttributeError:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax</module>

I have Ubuntu 18.04, Pillow 5.1.0-1, Python 2.7.15
Can you help me?
Thanks

This is definitely fixed, as current MComix requires both Python 3 and Pillow 6.
