------- Comment #1 from lordnapi at gmail.com  2008-06-25 12:24 EST -------
The problem was caused by not having data in <BlastOutput_version>BLASTP
2.2.18+</BlastOutput_version> in the XML files. I fixed the problem for myself
by changing _end_BlastOutput_version function in the Blast/NCBIXML.py file to
the following (starts at line 208). I still don't know if having date is
important elsewhere.

def _end_BlastOutput_version(self):
    """version number of the BLAST engine (e.g., 2.1.2)
    Save this to put on each blast record object
    """
    self._valuesplit = self._value.split()
    self._header.version = self._valuesplit[1]
    if len(self._valuesplit) > 2 :
        self._header.date = self._value.split()[2][1:-1]
    else:
        self._header.date = ''
