From debug view [20396] failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding****

Actually, the problem was a directory with junk chars in name inside of my home directory, which probably led to the problem described above.

Issue could be closed, but still could be useful for anyone who face the same problem

Closing as this was an issue with installing the Anaconda distribution, not an issue with the anaconda-project command.
