import zodbpickle.pickle UnicodeDecodeError about zodbpickle HOT 4 CLOSED

What are the details about your Python installation (exact version, platform tag)?

How did you install zodbpickle? via pip? Did it compile from source or choose the egg or exe installer?

If you're not sure, try creating a new virtual environment and running its pip install -v zodbpickle. If that still fails, try (after uninstalling zodbpickle, or in a new venv) pip install -v --no-binary :all: zodbpickle. The logs from those cases could be useful.

Are there any updates on this?

I cannot see any way for the import of zodbpickle._pickle to raise a UnicodeDecdeError, unless somehow the C files were transcoded to a non-UTF8 encoding during save?

The module initialization doesn't touch anything Unicode related: it initializes its types and exceptions, and sets them into its dictionary using ASCII names.

@aidiss Please reopen if you can supply any further information.
