Yes, it is broken already. So they can not use UTF-8 mode. If `encoding="locale"` ignore UTF-8 mode, it save the use case. They can add `encoding="locale"` where they need to use locale/GetACP encoding and enable UTF-8 mode. That's why it is important If we enable UTF-8 mode by default in the future. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43510> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
