ValueError: unsupported format character [Hebrew Options Page]
We allow our Mailman users to choose between English and Hebrew.
When one of our users tried to access the "options" page of the list, he received:
Bug in Mailman version 2.1.11
We're sorry, we hit a bug!
Looking in the logs I found that the ``bottom line'' was the error:
ValueError: unsupported format character '\xd7' (0xffffffd7) at index 139Full log attached.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Ephraim

There is an error in the Hebrew message catalog. The attached patch will at least fix the error.
To apply the patch in an installed Mailman, you can apply it to the installed messages/he/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po file. Then you must rebuild the binary messages/he/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.mo file which you can do with either Mailman's bin/msgfmt.py or the OS msgfmt command if you have it.
