Description Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-11 13:28:21 UTC
<dev-lang/python-3.1.4:3.1 and <dev-lang/python-3.2.1:3.2 does not support undecodable characters in distutils.command.build_scripts.build_scripts.copy_scripts().

dev-lang/python-3.1.4 and dev-lang/python-3.2.1 will be released soon. Until they are released, users of misconfigured systems can switch to UTF-8 locale.

Please read:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/utf-8.xml

Update /etc/locale.gen file, run locale-gen command and set locale in /etc/make.conf.

Example for /etc/locale.gen:
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

Example for /etc/make.conf:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"

It is recommended to continue using UTF-8 locale even after fixing of this bug.

There's still one more issue unsolved -- failing to write unicode characters in egg files (e.g. author names).
Comment 6 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-29 11:29:05 UTC
Is that part of the upstream bug?
Comment 7 Patrice Clement gentoo-dev 2016-10-12 08:41:19 UTC
This has been marked as FIXED by upstream. Closing.
