Description amreg 2013-09-21 21:49:01 UTC
Description of problem:
When trying to report a bug, an error pop-up windows shows.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
frescobaldi-2.0.9-1.fc19

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the menu "Help", and select "Report a bug...".
2.
3.

Actual results:
A pop-up shows with the following title "An internal error has occurred" and the following text:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/frescobaldi_app/mainwindow.py", line 733, in reportBug
    "Please describe the issue or feature request.\n"
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/frescobaldi_app/bugreport.py", line 75, in email
    body = "{0}: {1}\n\n{2}\n\n{3}\n\n".format(info.appname, info.version, versionInfoString(), body)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/frescobaldi_app/bugreport.py", line 69, in versionInfoString
    "OS: {osname}".format(**versionInfo()))
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 56: ordinal not in range(128)

Expected results:
Bug reported.

Additional info:
The above pop-up window has an "Email bug report" button. Clicking it just pops up an additional (and identical) error pop-up window on top of the previous one.

The bug I intended to report is the following:
"I can add a template (using menu "File/New from template/Manage templates..."), but when I try to edit it later, that added template is deleted when I close the edit window. In other words : editing an added template destroys it."

This is due to the Fedora release name Schoedinger's Cat. Of you replace the o umlaut in /etc/redhat-release with a normal 'o' it should be OK. In any case it just opens up a new email form with the following (replace the kernel with output from uname -a):

To: info

Subject: [Frescobaldi 2.0.9] 

Body: 

Frescobaldi: 2.0.9

Python: 2.7.5 -- Qt: 4.8.4 -- PyQt4: 4.10.1 -- sip: 4.14.6
OS: Linux-3.10.0-0.rc5.git0.2.fc20.x86_64-x86_64-with-fedora-19-Schrodinger's_Cat

Please describe the issue or feature request.
Provide as much information as possible.

I'm not sure this is worth filing upstream.

Comment 2 Brendan Jones 2013-09-30 05:12:53 UTC
However, when you email your bug be sure to mention this as well

In fact, not only should the "o-umlaut" be replaced by a "standard o" (or maybe "oe"), but also the quote between "Schrodinger" and "s" should be replaced by an **ASCII** quote...

After doing both changes it works. Thanks.

Still present in 2.0.10, but I've crafted a patch.

Does this work for you?  Does for me.
