    Bug 1434430 - [flake8] Fix blank 'except' statements r=rwood · f354075c
    Andrew Halberstadt authored
    This is a new issue that gets linted with flake8 3.5.0. Basically you should
    never use a blank except: statement.
    
    This will catch all exceptions, including KeyboardInterrupt and SystemExit
    (which is likely not intended). If a catch all is needed, use
    `except: Exception`.  If you *really* mean to also catch KeyboardInterrupt et
    al, use `except: BaseException`.
    
    Of course, being specific is often better than a catch all.
