Description

Expected Behavior

I've built a python web server application which reads zip and xml files, modifies and writes them. Everything works fine until a slimified version is created.


Actual Behavior

Application crashes with - ERROR - unknown encoding: cp437
Without slimification it works fine.

Maybe slim did remove the codepage. This behaviour is nowhere mentioned or documented.


Specifications

  • Version: latest
  • Platform: kubernetes

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the unknown encoding: cp437 failure before and after slimification of the Python web server image. Trace which slimification step removes or omits the encoding support, then verify the application can read and write the ZIP and XML files after the change.
