I'm only aware of one tool that writes .pth files, and that's setuptools, and it always writes ASCII (assuming package names are ASCII), so any encoding handling should be fine there. > We could add a handler for UnicodeDecodeError that falls back on utf-8? Yes, reasonable, but maybe we should consider instead _preferring_ UTF-8 and fall back to default encodings. That would be my preference. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35131> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
