[New-bugs-announce] [issue13029] test_strptime fails on Windows 7 french

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com>:

Python 3 uses wcsftime() to format a timestamp and decodes tzname[0] and tzname[1] from UTF-8. The problem is that both methods format the quote differently: U+0092 for wcsftime("%Z") and U+2019 in tzname[1].


>>> time.strftime("%Z")
'Paris, Madrid (heure d\x92été)'

>>> time.tzname
('Paris, Madrid', 'Paris, Madrid (heure d\u2019été)')
