Hello all,

I recently tried adding a <version_command> tag as follows,

    <version_command interpreter="python">
      blastxml_to_top_descr.py --version
    </version_command>

This kind of white space is tolerated in the <version> tag, so
should work here too I think. However, it resulting the Galaxy
attempting to run 'python' (which stalled as there was no
user input), and then 'blastxml_to_top_descr.py --version'.

The following simple change fixes this bug. In the meantime,
I have used the workaround to removing the white space in
the XML file:

    <version_command interpreter="python">blastxml_to_top_descr.py
--version</version_command>

Could someone please test this and commit it to the trunk,

Regards,

Peter
