Description of problem:
Unicode characters can cause UnicodeEncodeError anytime they are printed and the cli is executed from a subshell. More precisely every time python can't guess terminal's encoding. This causes troubles with localised strings.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
katello-cli-0.2.1-1
Steps to Reproduce:
For example:
1. katello environment create --name="žluťoučký_kůň" --prior Library --org ACME_Corporation
2. echo "$(kat environment list --org ACME_Corporation)"
3. see following error and the environment not being listed
error: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u017e' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128) (more in the log file)
Actual results:
Error "'ascii' codec can't encode character"
Expected results:
Command should print localised strings normally.
Fixed in katello-cli-0.2.4-1
All string inputs are converted to unicode as soon as possible. If there's no encoding settings forced from outside, utf-8 is set as default for stderr and stdout.
