Get UnicodeDecodeError when pip install django-nvd3 on ubuntu

[zoe-stockholm]

pip install works on my local but didn't work on ubuntu server no matter which version of django-nvd3. Django==1.8.2 python-nvd3==0.14.2 python 3.4

ps: It was working before (django-nvd3==0.8.2), today I just upgrade it and run pip unistall and pip install. Now I can't install django-nvd3 on any version.

@zoe-stockholm This happens due to issues with locale. See http://stackoverflow.com/a/25575908 for knowing which locale-related environment variables to set.

Thanks @lgp171188 ! It works for me like a charm!
