[AstroPy] Pyfits writeto w/ clobber

[Fabricio Ferrari]

Also regarding Pyfits, the new version 1.3 has a problem when one
tries to pyfits.writeto() a file with the clobber=True argument. In
the previous version the clobber worked fine, but now it complains
when you try to overwrite a file.

Does anyone have a similar problem? Some solution?

thanks
