[New-bugs-announce] [issue17354] TypeError when running setup.py upload --show-response

[Dmitry Shachnev]

New submission from Dmitry Shachnev:

When running `python3 setup.py sdist upload --show-response`, one may get this exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 47, in <module>
    requires=['dbus']
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/distutils/core.py", line 148, in setup
    dist.run_commands()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/distutils/dist.py", line 917, in run_commands
    self.run_command(cmd)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/distutils/dist.py", line 936, in run_command
    cmd_obj.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/distutils/command/upload.py", line 66, in run
    self.upload_file(command, pyversion, filename)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/distutils/command/upload.py", line 201, in upload_file
    msg = '\n'.join(('-' * 75, r.read(), '-' * 75))
TypeError: sequence item 1: expected str instance, bytes found

This happens because r is binary stream, so r.read() returns bytes. A trivial patch that fixes the problem is attached.
