Hi,
Looking at this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=513459
got me thinking - would it be possible to have rpmbuild check all the
content it is going to put into the rpm header to see if it is unicode
decodable and abort if it is not?
It would save anyone handling it from w/i python a lot of pain and
suffering, I think.
Would it be possible?
No, files can have any 8 bit name. They should be utf-8 but this is not
guaranteed.
Sorry...
Florian
