STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

pkginfo_utf8.patch: distutils uses UTF-8 to write PKG-INFO and .egg-info, instead of the locale encoding. It should be applied to 2.7, 3.2 and 3.3.

packaging_pkginfo_utf8.patch: packaging tests use UTF-8 to write PKG-INFO files, instead of the locale encoding (cosmetic change, the file content is an empty string :-)). It should only be applied to 3.3 (packaging has been introduced in Python 3.3).
