Illegal character in LICENSE.md #35

Closed dev-jam closed 12 months ago

dev-jam commented 1 year ago

When building a deb from the wheel with wheel2deb on debian I get an error:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x96 in position 621: invalid start byte

The problem is the presence of illegal characters in LICENSE.md

With RC7 I only had to replace a couple of "SPA" characters with the MINUS sign and then it worked, but with RC8 I also found "STS" and "CCH" characters. Replacing them did not solve the issue this time. So I suspect there are more hidden illegal characters.

I then created a new source package with:

python3 setup.py sdist

With this source package I could then succesfully build a deb with stdeb.

Replaced some minus signs and quotation marks. Should hopefully do the trick. Try 2.0.0rc9

Almost there, there is still one character in line 47:

   A. __Offer from the Licensor � Licensed Material.__ Every recipient of the Licensed Material automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this Public License.

I checked it with the following command (terminal needs to be set to utf-8):

grep -axv '.*' LICENSE.md
