[michamos]

@ksachs @fschwenn you were volunteering for maintaining the authorlist tool, IIRC?

[michamos]

Smaller test case that still exhibits the bug:

A. J. Hawken1, B. R. Granett1, A. Iovino1, L. Guzzo1,2

1 INAF–Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera, via Brera 28, 20122 Milano, via E. Bianchi 46, 23807 Merate, Italy 
2 Università degli Studi di Milano, via G. Celoria 16, 20130 Milano, Italy

[michamos]

Found it, it's failing on trailing whitespace in the affiliations.

BTW, it's also failing on trailing whitespace in the authors, but that's a different error:

J. Smith1 

1 University of somewhere

fails with ('Could not find affiliations',).

[ksachs]

first I have to see how to install a test version with not too much overhead. But yes - in principle its on my desk.

[ksachs]

wash_lines deletes the linebreak if there is a trailing space. So you have to clean it before.

I don't know whether the pull-request / commit message is done properly. You need to update 1 line of code.

[jacquerie]

I don't know whether the pull-request / commit message is done properly.

Feel free to skip that etiquette if you're planning to commit once in a while, we can fix those for you. The most important thing I did was to add the tests that @michamos provided above, so that we're sure that your PR fixes this issue.
