Guido van Rossum gu...@python.org added the comment: At the sprint, Andrew Svetlov, Martin von Loewis and I looked into this a bit, and discovered that Andrew's Vista copy uses a Russian locale for the filesystem encoding (despite using English as the language). In this locale, a-umlaut cannot be represented in the ANSI code page (which has only 256 values), because the Russian locale uses those byte values to represent Cyrillic. As long as the import code (written in C) uses bytes in the filesystem encoding to represent paths, this problem will remain. Two possible solutions would be to switch to Brett's importlib, or to change the import code to use wide characters everywhere (like posixmodule.c). Both are extremely risky and a lot of work, and I don't expect we'll get to this for 3.1. (In 2.x the same problem exists, but is perhaps less real because module names are limited to ASCII.) We also discovered another problem, which I'll report separately: the *module* name is decoded to UTF8, while the *path* name uses the filesystem encoding... -- nosy: +gvanrossum ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue4352 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue4352] imp.find_module() fails with a UnicodeDecodeError when called with non-ASCII search paths
Andrew Svetlov andrew.svet...@gmail.com added the comment: From my understanding (after tracing/debugging) problem lies in import.c find_module tries to convert path from unicode to bytestring using Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding (line 1397). For Windows it is 'mbcs'. Conversion done with decode_mbcs (unicodeobject.c:4244) what uses MultiByteToWideChar with codepage CP_ACP. Problem is: converting composite characters ('\u00e4' is 'a'+'2 dots over letter', I don't know true name for this sign) this function returns only 'a'. repr('h\u00e4kkinen'.encode('mbcs')) b'hakkinen' MSDN says (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en- us/library/dd374130(VS.85).aspx): For strings that require validation, such as file, resource, and user names, the application should always use the WC_NO_BEST_FIT_CHARS flag with WideCharToMultiByte. This flag prevents the function from mapping characters to characters that appear similar but have very different semantics. In some cases, the semantic change can be extreme. For example, the symbol for ∞ (infinity) maps to 8 (eight) in some code pages. Writing encoding function in opposite to PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault with setting this flag also cannot help - problematic character just replaced with 'default' ('?' if not specified). Hacking specially for 'latin-1' encoding sounds ugly. Changing all filenames to unicode (with possible usage of fileio instead of direct calls of open/fdopen) in import.c looks good for me but takes long time and makes many changes. -- components: +Interpreter Core versions: +Python 3.1 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue4352 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: Indeed. It happens when the filesystem encoding is not utf-8. I have several changes in my local workspace about this, which also deal with zipimport and other places that import modules.
