str.encode() with 'base64' as argument add a trailing new line character to the returned string. This is the difference from base64.b64encode(str) (that is used internally). This is not documented in str.encode() http://docs.python.org/2/library/stdtypes.html?highlight=encode#str.encode Instead it is perfectly documented for base64.encodestring() http://docs.python.org/2/library/base64.html#base64.encodestring
