[Docutils-users] Regarding https://sourceforge.net/p/docutils/bugs/414/

[Mula, W. (N. - PL/Wroclaw) <woj...@no...>]

Hi, I don't have an SF account, so adding a comment here.

To reproduce the issue it's sufficient to set LANG=C (or unset LANG at all). It works with Python 3.6 from Redhat 8. I think the correct solution is to open the .sty file in __init__.py with explicitly set encoding to UTF-8.

Günter asked why not using UTF-8? In our case we didn't even know that our CI setup does have locale set.

best regards
Wojciech
