That line is:

         wx.StandardPaths.Get().SetInstallPrefix(_sys.prefix)

SetInstallPrefix expects to get a unicode string, or something that can be 
converted to unicode using the utf-8 encoding. Since you are using Python2 
then sys.prefix is likely a non-unicode string and it is probably encoded 
using the filesystem's default encoding, which isn't utf-8.  Please try 
replacing that line with this code and let us know if that takes care of 
the problem for you.


        prefix = _sys.prefix
        if isinstance(prefix, (bytes, bytearray)):
            prefix = prefix.decode(_sys.getfilesystemencoding())
        wx.StandardPaths.Get().SetInstallPrefix(prefix)
