I looked into this with Renan. We think this is a separate issue and I have filed bug 2075337.
It would seem to affect any package that uses dh_python3 which inserts py3clean into the package prerm. For SRU purposes, I would have preferred to hold publication of package updates that will trigger the issue even though we know that it isn't caused by this package. However, doing that in this case would seem on balance to be too onerous. Users are already affected by this issue in other cases. We'd have to stop SRUs of all affected packages pending the fix. That might have been appropriate if this affected all UTF-8 using users, but seems a bit too far to go for users of other character sets. We have already had one SRU of ubuntu-advantage-tools with no reports of failures. I therefore think it's OK to release this SRU now, without waiting for bug 2075337 to be fixed. The workaround is to use UTF-8 as is the general recommendation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060769 Title: pro-client decodes utf-8 strictly, which causes problems in some locales To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+bug/2060769/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
