Call dpkg with LC_ALL=C.UTF8 set
from_package
calls /usr/bin/dpkg -L
and expects the output to be
UTF-8, but dpkg's output will the in the user's locale. This could lead
to unicode decode errors:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/py3clean", line 210, in <module>
main()
File "/usr/bin/py3clean", line 196, in main
pfiles = set(dpf.from_package(options.package))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/share/python3/debpython/files.py", line 54, in from_package
stdout = str(stdout, 'utf-8')
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 2417: invalid continuation byte
So set LC_ALL=C.UTF8
when calling dpkg.
