reassigning to python herd.

[Comment 2 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2005-09-29 08:45:47 UTC]

from metadata.xml its web-apps?

[Comment 3 Julien Allanos (RETIRED) 2005-09-29 14:50:49 UTC]

I asked kloeri about this, and he told me to reassign to python herd, because it
looks like a python-related bug.

[Comment 4 Fernando Serboncini (RETIRED) 2005-10-01 11:27:44 UTC]

It seems python is complaining about the coding of the file. I've never seen
anything like this and can't reproduce it.
It may be something related to sys.path (try: python -c "import sys ; print
sys.path" so we can see the python's include path)
perhaps this has something to do with the python installation...

[Comment 5 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2005-11-03 11:54:17 UTC]

can't reproduce?
