This is a shorter snippet to reproduce the issue:
import os
os.environ['TEST'] = u'äö'.encode('iso-8859-1')
os.path.expandvars(u'%TEST%a')
If the var is a non-ASCII byte string, and the string passed to expandvars() is Unicode, the var is decoded implicitly using the ASCII codec and the decoding fails.
On Python 3 the situation looks even worse:
import os
os.environ['TEST'] = 'äö'.encode('iso-8859-1');
os.path.expandvars('%TEST%a')
This snippet returns "b'\\xe4\\xf6'a". |
