Describe the bug
During the installation of pandas version 2.2.2, the preparation of metadata (pyproject.toml) fails with a UnicodeDecodeError. The error occurs when running a subprocess within the build process, specifically when setting up Meson.
To Reproduce
The issue occurred when attempting to install pandas using pip with the following command:
shell
pip install pandas==2.2.2
Unfortunately, I do not have a meson.build file to provide as this is a standard installation process using pip.
Expected behavior
I expected pandas to install without any errors. Instead, the process failed during the preparation of metadata with a Unicode decoding error.
System parameters
This is a native build on a Windows system.
Operating System: Windows 10
Python Version: 3.12.32 (32-bit)
Meson Version: (not provided, as the error occurs before Meson setup completion)
Ninja Version: (not applicable, as the error occurs before Meson setup completion)
The error log is as follows:
Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml): finished with status 'error'
error: subprocess-exited-with-error
Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully.
exit code: 2
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xca in position 46: invalid continuation byte
ERROR: Unhandled python exception
This is a Meson bug and should be reported!
Additional context
The error message suggests that this is a Meson-related issue and not a problem with pip itself. The error originates from a subprocess, indicating that it might be a bug in the Meson build system.
