build-slave UnicodeEncodeError

[martin@…]

Hi,

I have a bitten-slave running on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.3 LTS running Python 2.5.2. I have a build recipe which includes a pylint section, here is the snippet:

<step id="lint" description="Gather lint report">
    <sh:exec executable="pylint" args="mypackage -f parseable" output="pylint.out"/>
    <python:pylint file="pylint.out"/>
</step>

Part way through the pylint run the bluid-slave encounters an internal error. Here is the Traceback.

[ERROR   ] Internal error in build step 'lint'

Let me know if you require anymore more information.

Could you try the patch that has just been attached to #533?

[confluence]

This appears to be a duplicate of #504, and the patch from that ticket was committed.

Could this be verified by original reporter? Could you please update to latest from repository, and see if you still get the error?

[osimons]

No feedback. Presume this is fixed then (ie. duplicate).
