Bug#931411: samba-common-bin: samba-tool user create error with unicode characters in the names

[Pisch Tamás]

Hi,

Is it possible that the patch already applied? As I see, it is. I
tried to add a test user again:
samba-tool user create teszt1 p4ssw0rd --surname=Vezetéknév
but the result was the same.

Bug#931411: samba-common-bin: samba-tool user create error with unicode characters in the names

[Pisch Tamás]

Package: samba-common-bin
Version: 2:4.9.5+dfsg-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when I give the command, for example
samba-tool user create test pwd --surname Vezetéknév --givenname Keresztnév
I get the following error message:
ERROR(): Failed to add user
'teszttanar3':  - 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 16:
ordinal not in range(128)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samba/netcmd/user.py", line 425, in run
smartcard_required=smartcard_required)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samba/samdb.py", line 490, in newuser
force_password_change_at_next_login_req)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samba/samdb.py", line 606, in
setpassword
""" % (user_dn, base64.b64encode(pw).decode('utf-8'))
On the Samba list, somebody suggested to use newer Samba version,
because it is improved. Samba 4.10 can (or in default?) uses python3,
and with it, I could use unicode
characters. Ok, but I would like to use Debian 10, with official packages.
