The output can be empty in some situation, and it will raise an out of range error.

It can. But this is executed only if you are interested in the output (i.e. argument getOutput == True). If the command does not output anything, this is at least an unusual situation, as it is expected to output something.
So either catch the error and raise a different one with a descriptive name like EmptyProcessOutputError or similar or simply return an empty string.

Changing line 497 to if output and output[-1] == "\n": should prevent the call from raising an exception. It’ll then return an empty string.

Fixed. The fix will be part of the next bugfix release (0.95.11)
