@Lightslayer Thanks for the suggestion.

In the original implementation was not specify errors='replace', errors argument is no longer in this commit. https://github.com/raimon49/pip-licenses/pull/56/commits/63516663b0a33f7041e37d1b1c0ed459968f536c

I will add ignore orreplace to the argument in the next release.
