(In reply to Andrea Postiglione from comment #0) > phoenix /home/custom # revdep-rebuild -i > UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xe8' in position > 20: ordinal not in range(128) You do not have a UTF-8 enabled locale selected. Please correct this by setting one in 'eselect locale'. If one is not available, then editing /etc/locale.gen and running locale-gen may be required. In addition, do not set LC_ALL=C as this does not support UTF-8 either.

setting the locale does not change anything the error is always the same
This is solvable by explicitly encoding the Popen args parameter as UTF-8 bytes.
