Hello, I am using the provided localization by Django. I wanted to use gettext with some of my javascript files and thus enabled the JavaScriptCatalog and executed this command:
python manage.py makemessages -d djangojs -l de However, this results in a UnicodeDecodeError, ultimately caused by popen_wrapper in core/management/utils.py. I already spent a little time on debugging and found that this is called from is_templatized in makemessages.py, which tries to check the installed xgettext version. If I simply omit this check by always returning True there, makemessages succeeds and it also finds the correct messages in my JavaScript files. The exact error raised is: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xa9 in position 49: invalid start byte Also, DEFAULT_LOCALE_ENCODING is set to cp65001. When manually calling run from python with the arguments like in popen_wrapper, the invalid byte (0xa9) is clearly visible: "xgettext (GNU gettext-tools) 0.19.8.1\r\nCopyright \xa9 1995-1998, ..." Am I missing something? I am using Django version 4.0.3, Windows version 21H1, Python 3.10.3 (with Miniconda). Any help would be appreciated.
