YUM unfortunately fails when run on OS/2 Simplified Chinese version using the standard codepage (1386).

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/@unixroot/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 550, in <module>
    main()
  File "/@unixroot/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 540, in main
    setencoding()
  File "/@unixroot/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 494, in setencoding
    sys.setdefaultencoding(encoding) # Needs Python Unicode build !
LookupError: unknown encoding: CP1386

I wonder if this is because (being ported software) it expects the GBK encoding to be codepage 936 instead? (936 is the GBK codepage under Windows. OS/2 uses codepage number 1386 instead.)

Perhaps an alias or mapping needs to be added somewhere?

(In spite of the superficial similarity to ticket #88, I suspect this is not actually the same error condition. However, similarly to #88, yum can be forced to run by changing the process codepage to 850 and setting LANG=en_US.)

I'm trying to run rpmbuild pulling code from SVN.

This works fine on the OS/2 installation on my old laptop. Same SPEC file. However, on my new install, rpmbuild only returns with this error.

> rpmbuild -ba --nodeps SPECS\arcamapper.spec

error: line 23: Unknown tag: %scm_source svn https://svn.arcanoae.com/arcamapper/trunk 263

Am I missing some prerequisite? I've reviewed the instructions on the RPM HowTo? Packagers page but I can't see anything obvious.

The only differences I can see between the RPM installs on my old and new systems is that the old system has rpm and rpmbuild 4.13.0-19 (i686) and the new one has 4.13.0-20 (pentium4). And the old system has SVN 1.6 and the new one has SVN 1.14.

Wish list for kLibC.
