From bdc803e185e1a7bb14892405a2c0c840ba6e0fe1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Nuthalapati <njos...@thoughtworks.com> Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2017 13:04:18 +0530 Bug-debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=886093 Forwarded: https://github.com/asciimoo/searx/pull/1124 Reviewed-by: Sunil Mohan Adapa <su...@medhas.org> Subject: [PATCH] Make Python 3 able to read settings files with Unicode characters SearX currently doesn't start up when run with Python 3 as it tries to parse the settings.yml file with ASCII codecs. There are similar problems with engines_languages.json and currencies.json Python 3 requires that files with Unicode characters be read with a 'b' flag. This also works with Python 2 and hence can be integrated into the main source code. Tested with the latest Python 3.6.4rc1 on Debian unstable.
