Public bug reported:
To reproduce:
1. Attempt to paste non-unicode data with a pipe:
cat ~/.config/pulse/cookie | pastebinit
Result:
Python throwsa Unicode error.
Expected result:
It should work, as it does if you run:
pastebinit ~/.config/pulse/cookie
Impact:
If a program outputs even one invalid ascii/unicode character, the paste
will fail. This is a common problem when porting python 2 apps to python
3.
