Are you sure? The string that’s encoded with mbcs comes from the get_inidata method in bdist_wininst.py; get_inidata only works with strings (either string literals or str objects (in 3.x) given as attributes of the command object or in the DistributionMetadata object).

If needed, we can: the code lives in PC/bdist_wininst.

I don’t think so. Distutils supports author='Éric', so bdist_wininst should too :) |
