Getting some issue about utf8 encoding. Not a expert in python so not sure.

Can you confirm this happens with the current git master branch? Also please provide the full output log. On 3 Mar 2014 05:21, "403Penguin" notifications@github.com wrote:

As far as I know, this program cannot be installed under the latest python 2.7.6. You may try install python 2.7.3 first.

dgorissen commented 10 years ago

It should work with latest python. I meant to use the latest version from github. Not the latest version from pypi. Anyway, I have just updated the version in pypi anyway so do a pip install --upgrade. If it still crashes please provide the full log.
