Install Package issue - UnicodeDecodeError

#1

I just downloaded Sublime Test 2 (vs 2.0.1 build 2217), and I´m giving it a try.

I have installed “Package Control” and get the following message when I inserted the command “Install package” in the command pallete:

Exception in thread Thread-2: Traceback (most recent call last): File ".\threading.py", line 532, in __bootstrap_inner File ".\Package Control.py", line 1890, in run File ".\Package Control.py", line 1759, in make_package_list File ".\Package Control.py", line 1121, in list_available_packages File ".\Package Control.py", line 1066, in list_repositories File ".\Package Control.py", line 175, in get_repositories File ".\Package Control.py", line 148, in fetch_channel File ".\Package Control.py", line 1007, in download_url File ".\Package Control.py", line 622, in download UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe3 in position 90: ordinal not in range(128)

I googled it, but had no luck. I´ve seen people with a similar issue (the UnicodeDecodeError). A coworker got the very same problem.
Right now I´m trying the portable version, but again, no luck.

Any help would be VERY appreciated, since it looks very promising… don´t want to stop using it because of something like this.

Thanks.
