[Rock-dev] encoding in autoproj

[Chris Mueller]

Here is a small error in autoproj relating to the encoding in a ruby file.

$ autoproj update

I guess, this problem probably only occurs when setting the locales on 
the system is different from UTF-8.
auv at avalon:~/dev$ autoproj update
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
         LANGUAGE = "de_DE.UTF-8",
         LC_ALL = "de_DE.UTF-8",
         LC_MESSAGES = "de_DE.UTF-8",
         LC_COLLATE = "de_DE.UTF-8",
         LC_CTYPE = "de_DE.UTF-8",
         LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
     are supported and installed on your system.


$ autoproj update --no-osdeps
is working fine.
