[maemo-developers] Python - problem with locales

[From: luciano.wolf at indt.org.br]

Hi David,

To resolve locale, Python uses LC_ALL, LC_CTYPES, LANG and LANGUAGE in 
this order. SDK3.3 sets LC_ALL=C giving (None,None) as result to 
getdefaultlocale(). SDK2.2 and N800 leaves LC_ALL clean, then if you set 
LANGUAGE everything goes fine. By now you can "unset LC_ALL" to resolve 
this problem.

Regards,
Luciano

Hi
I have problems to display special characters in the python console 
(With Scratchbox) :
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2014' in 
position 54: ordinal not in range(128)

I think this is because the following command :
locale.getdefaultlocale()
return
(None, None)

I didn't have this issue with maemo 3.1 SDK.

How to solve this issue ?

Thanks

David.
