I'm not sure why it seems to think anything not in the first plane is a "special character". The yaml spec says "The allowed character range explicitly excludes the surrogate block #xD800-#xDFFF, DEL #x7F, the C0 control block #x0-#x1F (except for #x9, #xA, and #xD), the C1 control block #x80-#x9F, #xFFFE, and #xFFFF."
I've tried a few characters that need 3 or 4 bytes in utf8 (because I was looking at bugs in utf16 in a yaml parser in a different language) and found that pyyaml aborts with them. At first I thought it was confusing the utf8 encoding with the codepoint, but U+20021 (𠀡) is not that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1518150 Title: A Chinese character in the snapcraft.yaml crashes the snapcraft To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1518150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
