Installation fails on python 3.4.0

[waghanza]

Hi,

I am using schedule as a cron-like library. Installation on my OS X (python3 installed via brew) has just being install, but I can't install on my production server (debian).

I've check my setups, I have 3.4.0 on my debian and 3.4.1 on my OS X.

On python 3.4.0I have

Thanks for reporting this one @waghanza and sorry for my late reply! This seems to be caused by the – (long dash) character in README.rst.

As for fixing this issue we could either replace that character with a regular dash (-) to make the file plain ASCII or work around the encoding issue when we read the file. I'll ping you once I've addressed the issue and released a new PyPI package. I should be able to get this done sometime this week.

Closing because it's been fixed for a while.
