Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:
However, this patch isn't right, since it will cause all source to be
interpreted as UTF-8. This would be wrong when the sys.stdin.encoding is not
UTF-8, and byte string objects are created in interactive mode.
Can you show how to reproduce the error

Well, the config file format is older and fileConfig() does not cover as much
as dictConfig() does. (For example, filters). I don't propose to spend time
enhancing fileConfig(), now that dictConfig() is available. If you are forced
to use fileConfig(), you can
STINNER Victor added the comment:
macosx-2.patch patches _Py_wchar2char() and _Py_char2wchar() functions to
use UTF-8/surrogateescape for any function using the locale encoding, not
only file related functions of fileutils.h. The patch does also simplify
the code, no more specific #ifdef
Nikolay Bryskin added the comment:
Actually, I'm using dictConfig to load config from json file. And yes, ext://
provides a way to load custom handler, but, as far as I see
(https://github.com/jonashaag/cpython/blob/master/Lib/logging/config.py#L379-404),
there is no possibility to specify
Tom Pohl added the comment:
Thanks for all the explanations why Python's floor division (FD) works as
specified. And I agree, it does work as specified, but still, I think this is
not the behavior that most people would expect and is therefore dangerous to
provide/use.
What do I expect from

Ok, just as you suggested, I did the calculations on a sheet of paper:
floor(1 mathematically-divided-by 0.1) = floor(10) = 10

Stefan Krah added the comment:
Any programming language that uses binary floats behaves like that
and it is actually what people expect.
If you want behavior that is closer to pencil and paper calculations,
you need to use decimal:
Decimal(1) // Decimal(0.1)
Decimal('10')
Contrast with:
STINNER Victor added the comment:
Hijacking locale.getpreferredencoding() is maybe dangerous. I attached a
new patch, force_ascii.patch, which uses a different approach: be more
strict than mbstowcs(), force the ASCII encoding when:
- the LC_CTYPE locale is C
- nl_langinfo(CODESET) is ASCII or
Martin v. Löwis added the comment:
I think the patch will break on Unix systems that don't have uid_t or gid_t
types.

Ronald Oussoren added the comment:
The patch should work on OSX, although I haven't actually tested it yet. I've
verified that sizeof(uid_t) and sizeof(gid_t) are the same for x86_64 and i386,
which means SIZEOF_UID_T doesn't have to be added to pymacconfig.h.
A smal nit with the patch: it
Martin v. Löwis added the comment:
I don't think that using pathconf is an important part of this issue. Instead,
it is more important to deal with ENAMETOOLONG errors. To do so, we should get
rid of all stack allocations of arrays with PATH_MAX/MAXPATHLEN size (also
because they can consume
