The error from QGIS says:
===============
Couldn't load PyQGIS. Python support will be disabled.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError:
No module named qgis.core
Python version: 2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:44:16) [MSC v.1500
64 bit (AMD64)]
QGIS version: 2.16.0-Nødebo 'Nødebo', d0b3e39

(and more Python path statements...)
===================
QGIS then starts normally, but without Python support
AFAIK, the problem is the use of the character "ø" (o-slash) in the
directory name for the QGIS program directory: "C:\Program Files\QGIS
Nødebo". If you make a name change of the installation directory to ex.
"C:\Program Files\QGIS Noedebo" it works without a hitch.
(As a Dane, I would never use local danish "æøå" or other accented
character in file or directory names that might be installed on
windows-pc's with different encoding than "Latin1", ex. slavic windows
pc's., but that's another issue)
The specific problem might be the representation of "ø" in the Python
path: There is 2 *different* versions: "N*\xc3\xb8*debo" and "N*\xf8*debo"
"\xf8" -> "ø" in Latin1 encoding.
"\xc3\xb8" -> UTF-8 "ø" -> "ø" (if UTF8 "ø" is interpreted as a 2
character Latin1 encoded string).
The cause is probably something like this: The python path is created
using both UTF-8 encoding and Latin1 encoding. And later, the path is
"decoded" using only Latin1 encoding.

Hi all,
Seems the name of the release is causing a few issues on Windows installs:
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/202222/qgis-2-16-n%C3%B8debo-libintl-8-dll-missing
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/201657/problem-installing-new-version-of-qgis-under-windoss-10-64-bits/202200#202200
etc
Are we planning on keeping the unicode name for the folder name?
Could we use something else with doesn't include unicode so we don't
break too much.
Have we done an official release yet or still resolving some issues
with the packages?
Regards,
Nathan
