I haven't been seeing the behaviour since august last year, but that is because I fixed it by making the change in comment #15. I'll remove my fix to see whether the bug still occurs.
One reason I might have been seeing this problem and others didn't is my locale setting. It's a bit different than most people's: LANG=en_US.utf8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8" LC_NUMERIC=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_TIME=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8" LC_MONETARY=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8" LC_PAPER=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_NAME=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_ADDRESS=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_MEASUREMENT=nl_NL.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8" LC_ALL= That is because I don't like Dutch language translations. I find them to be clunky and incomplete, so I'd rather see things in English, but I still want to see Dutch number formats, date formats, etc... Perhaps this unusual locale setting is triggering the bug? Like Foppe says this was a real and reproducable bug. I think closing it now would be a bit premature. I still think it's likely that it points to a bug in the Python libraries. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/605543 Title: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe1 in position 0: unexpected end of data -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
