Actually I'm finding these failures on Ubuntu :-)
Although there are MBCS encoding issues which will also need to be fixed before
you can build a pure-Python .exe installer on Linux (which is possible with
distutils, so should work in packaging too), these failures occur before you
get to that point. That last part can be fixed on Linux by doing (in
bdist_wininst.create_exe):
try:
cfgdata = cfgdata.encode("mbcs")
except LookupError:
cfgdata = cfgdata.encode("latin-1")
which is at least better than what we have now.
