Do:
print struct.unpack('3cII', yourfile.read(11))
instead of:
signature, version, attr_count = struct.unpack('3cII', yourfile.read(11))
to check what does struct.unpack return.
I guess it returns more than three elements. Just like below:
>>> a,b,c=(1,2,3,4)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ValueError: too many values to unpack
As you can see the fourth element from the tuple has no place to go.
Same thing happens in your code.
HTH.
