Package: python-powerline Version: 0~20140216-1 Dear Maintainer,
I tried to follow the instructions on https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/usage/shell-prompts.html#zsh-prompt To test powerline before adding it to my .zshrc, I sourced /usr/share/pyshared/powerline/bindings/zsh/powerline.zsh in a running zsh. What I always got instead of the prompt is the following python traceback, even with a completely unconfigured zsh: ~ → exec zsh -f nemo2% . /usr/share/pyshared/powerline/bindings/zsh/powerline.zsh 2014-08-14 23:40:36,841:ERROR:shell:powerline:Failed to render: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, instancemethod found Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/powerline/__init__.py", line 435, in render return self.renderer.render(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/powerline/renderers/zsh_prompt.py", line 38, in render *args, **kwargs File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/powerline/renderer.py", line 208, in render segments = [self._get_highlighting(segment, mode) for segment in segments File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/powerline/theme.py", line 120, in get_segments segment['contents'] = segment['before'] + u(segment['contents'] if segment['contents'] is not None else '') + segment['after'] File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/powerline/lib/unicode.py", line 13, in u return unicode(s, 'utf-8') TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, instancemethod found coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, instancemethod found My terminal is an uxterm with the following additional characteristics: TERM=xterm-256color COLORTERM=yes LANG=en_DK.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_GB:en The above happened with uxterm from Wheezy and zsh running on Sid via SSH. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (900, 'testing'), (899, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (600, 'stable'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.15-trunk-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages python-powerline depends on: ii python-psutil 2.1.1-1+b1 pn python:any <none> python-powerline recommends no packages.
