I'm trying to build a windows binary package on Linux. This usually works fine -- as long as the package description doesn't contain unicode. If it *contains* unicode it will somehow internally use MBCS encoding. So if someone fixes windows binary package building on non-windows platforms to not use MBCS encoding this is fine with me. But maybe the easier way out here is to include that codec on all platforms. (and don't tell me I have to install windows for building a windows binary package :-) Thanks, Ralf -- Dr. Ralf Schlatterbeck Tel: +43/2243/26465-16 Open Source Consulting www: http://www.runtux.com Reichergasse 131, A-3411 Weidling email: off...@runtux.com osAlliance member email: r...@osalliance.com ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10945> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
