Compile python (from 2.4.6 to version 2.6.8) on solaris 5.10 sparc using gcc 3.4.6. When using UTf-8, the \xa0 is a space. Howeve this is wrong. Version 2.7 is OK.

>>> s = '\xa0'
>>> assert s.strip() == s
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'en_US.UTF-8')
'en_US.UTF-8'
>>> assert s.strip() == s

2.6 only gets security fixes at this point, which this is not.

Could you please tell me the way to deal with this is version 2.7?

I'm sorry, It looks like you said it was working as you expected in 2.7, and you marked it for version 2.6.  So what is the bug that you see in 2.7?

No, i mean it works ok on version 2.7. However, what I want to know is the way that works in version2.7, because I want to try to fix it in version 2.6.

Ah.  I have no idea.  I did a search and could not find an issue about it being fixed...that doesn't mean there wasn't one, though.

Does the problem occur *only* solaris?  Because if it isn't solaris specific it might be this one: issue 1571184.

I have just tried on solaris. I will try the solution of issue 1571184, thanks a lot.
