Re: [Distutils] Encoding error installing my own package from PyPI

[Éric Araujo]

Distutils is not fully aware of unicode.  Something to try: open your 
files like you do and get their contents as unicode, but encode the 
result to UTF-8 bytes before passing it to the setup function.

I thinks this is worth reporting to bugs.python.org, if it isn’t already.
