# Bug report
### Bug description:
I installed python 3.12.2 with rye 0.32.0, and it created a pth file that contains non-ascii file path.
```
$ cat .venv/Lib/site-packages/_tesuto.pth
C:\Users\XXXXXXXXX\Documents\tmp\テスト\src
```
Processing this file causes a UnicodeDecodeError and python prompt fails to open. (#87380)
I tried running python in utf-8 mode via $ python -X utf8 and PYTHONUTF8=1 environment variable, but not worked.
(not also with 3.11.8)
Error message is like following:
```
$ python -X utf8
Fatal Python error: init_import_site: Failed to import the site module
Python runtime state: initialized
Traceback (most recent call last):
