Package: calibre
Version: 3.15.0+dfsg-1
Followup-For: Bug #886682
Dear Maintainer,
I'm having the same error, always with my default locale fr_FR.UTF-8, only on
the second start with C locale and french language selected.
If I "export LANG = C", "rm -r .config/calibre/" and then launch calibre, it
starts, I can choose my language and use calibre :
$ export LANG=C
$ rm -r .config/calibre/
$ calibre

opt.help = opt.help.format(u'ñ')
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf1' in position 0:
ordinal not in range(128)
But when I close it, and starts it again, even with LANG=C, it then crashes on
next startups :
$ calibre

If I choose english language, I dont't have any UnicodeEncodeError error, I can
close Calibre and start it again.
Regards,
Sebastien
