[Python-modules-team] Bug#783789: python-odf: Regression - cannot open spreadsheet files.

[Ying-Chun Liu (PaulLiu)]

Package: python-odf
Version: 1.2.0-6
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

Please see the attachment python code. I tried to open an ods file and get
crash. But odt/odp works good.

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
      ineffective)?

Please put the two files into /tmp. Run /tmp/test01.py

    * What was the outcome of this action?

Traceback (most recent call last):

     return str(arg)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 
0-2: ordinal not in range(128)

    * What outcome did you expect instead?

It should work good. The code works on 1.2.0-2. I'm not sure why
it doesn't work now for 1.2.0-6.
