New submission from Hagen Fürstenau <[email protected]>:
With issue 10419 fixed, I've run into the next distutils unicode bug: The
command "install_egg_info" doesn't specify an encoding when opening the
".egg-info" file for writing. Depending on the locale, this may result in
something like the following:
$ python setup.py install
[...]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 67, in <module>

File "setup.py", line 62, in main

write_pkg_file
file.write('Author: %s\n' % self.get_contact() )
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xfc' in position 15:
ordinal not in range(128)
I guess some encoding (UTF-8?) should be specified in the "run" method of
"install_egg_info".
