-Subject: [PATCH] Convert HISTORY.rst from UTF-8 format to ASCII
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-UTF-8 formatted file breaks installations on some systems:
-
-Traceback (most recent call last):
-  File "setup.py", line 34, in <module>
-    long_description=open('README.rst').read() + '\n\n' + open('HISTORY.rst').read(),
-  File "/home/peko/autobuild/instance-1/output/target/usr/lib/python3.6/encodings/ascii.py", line 26, in decode
-    return codecs.ascii_decode(input, self.errors)[0]
-UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc2 in position 1125: ordinal not in range(128)
-
-To fix this error just replace '§' with 'S' meaning 'Section'.
