[Bug 349467] Re: Many python programs fail with: undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS4_DecodeUTF8
Note that the buggy Python was used for at least some hours also on the build servers and can have corrupted some packages. One package I know of is the i386 version of HPLIP 3.9.2-3ubuntu2. See bug 349781. I am rebuilding this package now as the build server should use the fixed version now. Everyone who maintains packages of Python apps or libraries please check. Everyone who still has problems with Python apps after a full update, please addd a link to this bug and to bug 349781 in your bug report. -- Many python programs fail with: undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS4_DecodeUTF8 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349467 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
