Ubik added the comment: As detailed in this SO question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28101187/deal-with-unicode-usernames-in-python-mkdtemp I still see the issue in 2.7.8. I use a unicode prefix and changing this is not an option (editing legacy code which expects unicode everywhere) Is there some full proof workaround ? Is the one suggested in the OP good enough ? ---------- nosy: +Ubik _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1681974> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
