RSS, supybot and utf8
So, it seems that the issues I’ve been having with Lethargy are because supybot is not by default utf8 compliant. Meaning that it wont pick up RSS feeds that are.
Zeth Green came up with the following solution
<+zeth> back up that file
<+zeth> sudo cp -a /usr/bin/supybot /root/
<+zeth> you see the line import sys
<+zeth> after that add these 2 line
<+zeth> reload(sys)
<+zeth> sys.setdefaultencoding(’utf-8′)
<+zeth> then restart Lethargy and see what happens![]()
Well, it worked, now if only I could find the supybot bugtracker
<+zeth> that is why those Launchpad people have a point
<+zeth> One bugtracker to rule them all
