Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: haypo: > Can't you only work with Unicode and avoid the MBCS encoding? It is not code under the users’ control (i.e. setup.py) that uses MBCS, but the bdist_wininst command itself. It used to be runnable from linux, which is great to provide binary installers for Windows users who typically don’t have a compiler. This is what the bug is about.
