> It's doing this now, so seems like it has been fixed Yes. In POSIX systems since Python 3.7, if the LC_CTYPE locale is the legacy "C" or "POSIX" locale, by default it tries to coerce LC_CTYPE to "C.UTF-8", "C.utf8", or "UTF-8". If coercion fails or is disabled (e.g. by defining LC_ALL), the interpreter will still use UTF-8 for the filesystem encoding if UTF-8 mode isn't disabled. If UTF-8 mode is also disabled, then ASCII is used. For example: $ LC_CTYPE=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE= PYTHONUTF8= python -c 'import sys; print(sys.getfilesystemencoding())' utf-8 $ LC_CTYPE=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0 PYTHONUTF8= python -c 'import sys; print(sys.getfilesystemencoding())' utf-8 $ LC_CTYPE=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0 PYTHONUTF8=0 python -c 'import sys; print(sys.getfilesystemencoding())' ascii ---------- nosy: +eryksun resolution: -> fixed stage: needs patch -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue25867> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
