The file:

     /home/werner/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ase/test/mopac/mopac_cmdline.py

is not part of the latest stable release or the latest development version.  It looks like you running some mix of an older version of ASE and a newer one.  How did you install ASE?  Did you set your $PATH and $PYTHONPATH?
