This change encodes the CC list to UTF-8 to avoid failures on maintainer-addresses that include non-ASCII characters (observed on Debian 7.11 with Python 2.7.3).
Without this, I get the following failure: Traceback (most recent call last): File "tools/patman/patman", line 159, in <module> options.add_maintainers) File "[snip]/u-boot/tools/patman/series.py", line 234, in MakeCcFile print(commit.patch, ', '.join(set(list)), file=fd) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 81: ordinal not in range(128) from Heiko's email address: [..., u'"Heiko St\xfcbner" <he...@sntech.de>', ...] While with this change added this encodes to: "=?UTF-8?q?Heiko=20St=C3=BCbner?= <he...@sntech.de>" Signed-off-by: Philipp Tomsich <philipp.toms...@theobroma-systems.com> --- tools/patman/series.py | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/patman/series.py b/tools/patman/series.py index c1b8652..134a381 100644 --- a/tools/patman/series.py +++ b/tools/patman/series.py @@ -119,7 +119,7 @@ class Series(dict): email = col.Color(col.YELLOW, "<alias '%s' not found>" % tag) if email: - print(' Cc: ', email) + print(' Cc: ', email.encode('utf-8')) print for item in to_set: print('To:\t ', item) @@ -230,7 +230,7 @@ class Series(dict): if add_maintainers: list += get_maintainer.GetMaintainer(commit.patch) all_ccs += list - print(commit.patch, ', '.join(set(list)), file=fd) + print(commit.patch, ', '.join(set(list)).encode('utf-8'), file=fd) self._generated_cc[commit.patch] = list if cover_fname: -- 1.9.1 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot
