Wolfgang Maier added the comment: I think PEP 538 extended to the UTF-8 locale *would* help here. Specifically, it would coerce only LC_CTYPE to en_US.UTF-8 (unless OS X has C.UTF-8), which I guess is good enough for the purpose here.
I do agree that it is not the kind of problem that PEP 538 tries to solve right now, but it could be extended to cover other types of problematic locales like this one. Just wanted to make you aware of this possibility. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18378> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
