This kind of error has bugged me recently. Its a generic problem with non unicode characters in a file. see here: https://wiki.python.org/moin/UnicodeDecodeError https://wiki.python.org/moin/UnicodeDecodeError

Re your specific error see: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xd5 in ...github.com › pypa › pip › issues https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&ved=2ahUKEwjb3Lqj4dnnAhXbyzgGHV1XBXcQFjABegQIARAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fpypa%2Fpip%2Fissues%2F4825&usg=AOvVaw2ZJFTkybiH6i1zsftGpHhq Regards Rob

I hit the same problem, what I did, I just converted from one encoding to another (in this case utf-8) with iconv:

• first get the encoding of the file: file -i main.m , in my case it was iso-8859-1, so:
• iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 main.m > test.m the issue with encoding was resolved.
