When rendering an rst page with utf-8 characters in (specifically but not solely "£"), ikiwiki seems to hang.
Killing with Control-C gives the following traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/ikiwiki/plugins/rst", line 97, in ?
handler.handle_request()
File "/usr/lib/ikiwiki/plugins/rst", line 74, in handle_request
ret = rpc_read(processor)
File "/usr/lib/ikiwiki/plugins/rst", line 42, in rpc_read
line = sys.stdin.readline()
KeyboardInterrupt
rst2html on the same file has no problem rendering the file as expected. The markdown plugin also has no problems rendering the same file, so I'm guessing it's a problem with the XML-RPC interface.
Sorry for the delay, this is now fixed! --Joey
