AttributeError: 'ChannelFileWrite' object has no attribute 'encoding'

When I try to run testsuite for pytest-xdist and both execnet and teamcity-messages are installed few tests fails with errors like:

/usr/lib/python3.9/vendor-packages/execnet/gateway_base.py:749: RemoteError

With teamcity-messages uninstalled these tests pass.

Riproduci il problema con execnet, pytest-xdist e teamcity-messages installati, iniziando da gateway_base.py di execnet e dall’oggetto ChannelFileWrite nel traceback. Esamina teamcity/common.py, dove viene letto sys.stdout.encoding, quindi esegui i test pytest-xdist interessati con e senza teamcity-messages. Il lavoro è completato quando il plugin viene caricato senza questo AttributeError e i test hanno esito positivo.
