Description James Laska 2008-03-25 11:46:13 UTC
Testing against rawhide (20080324), anaconda-11.4.0.55, observing a
UnicodeDecodeError during package installation.  I know there are several of
these floating around, so I'll be happy to dupe if needed.  They all seem to
surface at different spots during package install.
