What should the encoding be for PKG-INFO? PEP 241, 301, 314, and 345 do not specify.
I notice PKG-INFO must comply with an RFC that predates Unicode, and I notice I get a traceback if I try to put a non-ascii character into my Python 2.4.3 setup.py description. (I eventually decided to just .encode('utf-8') in setup.py) Thanks, Daniel Holth
