I *hate* this Unicode mess in Python :(
Isn't it something that is (should be) solved with Python 3.x ?
So there is indeed a bug where some informations that can be in utf-8
format are only expected to be in ascii by wicd (I don't know which
parameter is , concerned in the reported line 358 of sicd-curses.py, but
I suspect it is about the encoding of self.essid, that is indeed
unlikely to only contain ASCII characters).
Yup, and the same goes with keys / user identities in general.
I'll see what I can come up with; I'd really like to fix this with 1.7.1.
If it can help, switching back to testing versions seems to solve this
precise problem: no more encoding errors with wicd-ncurses.
This bug seems critical, as wicd cannot be used in this case.
It's not critical, but it's normal/important. WICD can still be used on non-utf
networks ;)
I get your point, of course. I tend to consider bugs that break the
network as critical for a simple reason: when an update breaks your
network, then you are stuck for apt-getting anything else for repairing
the problem. It can be really nasty. This is the reason I have both wicd
and network-manager installed, it limits the odds for having the two
broken simultaneously.
Thank you,
