Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: unattended-upgrades

I'm doing unattended-upgrades (0.55ubuntu4) on some Ubuntu 10.04
machines. If i try do give attributes, it crashes. There seems to be a
problem in option parsing.

# unattended-upgrade --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 490, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 242, in main
    (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 1394, in parse_args
    stop = self._process_args(largs, rargs, values)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 1434, in _process_args
    self._process_long_opt(rargs, values)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 1509, in _process_long_opt
    option.process(opt, value, values, self)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 788, in process
    self.action, self.dest, opt, value, values, parser)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 810, in take_action
    parser.print_help()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 1664, in print_help
    file.write(self.format_help().encode(encoding, "replace"))
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 112: 
ordinal not in range(128)

If I do this on on Ubuntu 9.04 (unattended-upgrades 0.39) it works fine:

      # unattended-upgrade --help
      Usage: unattended-upgrade [options]

      Options:
        -h, --help   show this help message and exit
        -d, --debug  print debug messages
