[Sugar-devel] [sugar-toolkit-gtk3] Set default python encoding to utf-8

[godiard at sugarlabs.org]

From: Gonzalo Odiard <godiard at gmail.com>

As spoted by Daniel Narvaez in [1], pygi does not set the default encoding
anymore as the old gtk did. This change break ported activities.
The change in gtk was discussed upstream here [2]
A better solution will be implemented when we port to python 3,
when we will be able to use real unicode strings.
