Description of problem: Emails, sent by the dnf-automatic, use "us-ascii" charset (Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"). So, if the system language is set to some non-English language, dnf-automatic emails include native characters and are displayed incorrectly. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-automatic-1.1.0-2.fc22.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Set up dnf-automatic for downloading and applying updates with reports via email. Wait for an email from dnf. Actual results: Unreadable characters in email client (thunderbird) Expected results: The email client shall display all email contents correctly, without switching encoding manually. Changing charset to utf-8 in emails should help.
Thanks for the report. Post the dnf traceback, please.
dnf finishes normally and does not produce any traceback in this case. The only problem is that the email that is sent as a notification about applied updates is displayed incorrectly due to wrong charset.
The below patch fixes this issue for me: --- /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/automatic/emitter.py_save 2015-09-11 15:33:35.422794834 +0300 +++ /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/automatic/emitter.py 2015-09-11 15:36:24.770152054 +0300 @@ -89,6 +89,9 @@ message = dnf.pycomp.email_mime(body) email_from = self._conf.email_from email_to = self._conf.email_to + + message.set_charset("utf-8") + message['Subject'] = subj message['From'] = email_from message['To'] = ','.join(email_to)
