New submission from Hagen Fürstenau <ha...@zhuliguan.net>: As suggested in issue 9561, I'm creating a new bug for the encoding problem in build_scripts: If a script file can't be decoded with the (locale dependent) standard encoding, then "build_scripts" fails with UnicodeDecodeError. Reproducable e.g. with LANG=C and a script file containing non ASCII chars near the beginning (so that they're read on a single readline()).
Attaching a patch that uses "surrogateescape", as proposed for issue 6011. ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils files: surrogateescape.patch keywords: patch messages: 121207 nosy: eric.araujo, hagen, tarek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: distutils command build_scripts fails with UnicodeDecodeError type: crash versions: Python 3.1, Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19607/surrogateescape.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10419> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
