[viewvc-users] python 2.6 exception when viewing a file containing a ' (ascii 0x92)

Being not so firm with python, I have a problem viewing certain files with ViewVC.

Each file in CVS which contains a ‘ (ascii 0x92) raises an exception when viewed with ViewVC:

Python Traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
.....
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
    return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x92 in position 210: invalid start byte

At this position (a simple .h file) there is at position 210 a ' in a comment.
Removing this and checking in, all is fine.

I am not sure if the problem is in a configuration of ViewVC or that python needs a specific configuration

Version: ViewVC 1.1.5 and python 2.6 on Debian 6.0

Thanks for any help

Tobias
