[issue12112] The new packaging module should not use the locale encoding

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

+        if not isinstance(fileobject, StringIO):
+            encoding = codecs.lookup(fileobject.encoding).name

IMO you should try to get the "encoding" attribute and silence the AttributeError instead.

(also, I'm not even sure why you're adding this check)
