UTF-8 Encoding Error, __init.py__ 0.15-dev

[yagupta]

When attempting to package w/ Buildozer, I see an issues in UTF-8 conversion. Upon inspection in file init.py (for buildozer)

This snippet of code :

process.communicate()
if process.returncode != 0 and break_on_error:
print "[YaGupta-Debug] - Self.CMD Failed, %s" % (command)
self.error('Command failed: {0}'.format(command))
raise BuildozerCommandException()
if ret_stdout:
ret_stdout = b''.join(ret_stdout)
ret_stdout = ret_stdout[0:10741]
if ret_stderr:
ret_stderr = b''.join(ret_stderr)
return (ret_stdout.decode('utf-8') if ret_stdout else None,
ret_stderr.decode('utf-8') if ret_stderr else None,
process.returncode)

Fails the UTF-8 Call (the code above has a few edit from me)

It fails because, there is a character below Intel?VT which fails.

Seems like if I modify the file "init.py"

from :
return (ret_stdout.decode('utf-8') if ret_stdout else None,
ret_stderr.decode('utf-8') if ret_stderr else None,
process.returncode)

to :

return (ret_stdout.decode('utf-8', 'ignore') if ret_stdout else None,
ret_stderr.decode('utf-8', 'ignore') if ret_stderr else None,
process.returncode)

maybe this is a potential fix.

But for me i edited.

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/buildozer/libs/pexpect.py", line 837
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/buildozer/libs/pexpect.py", line 1381, in expect_loop

then editor 2 lines in codec (from here https://docs.python.org/2/library/codecs.html)
