New submission from Dan <malantr...@gmail.com>: On Windows, distutils doesn't correctly read UTF-8 content from config files (setup.cfg).
Seems like the issue is located on the line reading the files via the ConfigParser; simply adding 'encoding="UTF-8"' as argument fixes the problem for me: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/4727 On Linux it seems to be working fine. ---------- components: Distutils, Library (Lib), Windows messages: 307668 nosy: delivrance, dstufft, eric.araujo, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal pull_requests: 4633 severity: normal status: open title: distutils doesn't correctly read UTF-8 content from config files type: behavior versions: Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32223> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
