I was trying to install the needed dependecies for the theme https://github.com/mylinuxforwork/. While I was doing that, I encountered an error in python-screeninfo and waypaper-2.7-1 (that is using python-screeninfo). Here are the logs:
AUR Explicit (1): python-screeninfo-0.8.1-2
...
==> Starting build()...
Getting build dependencies for wheel...
Building wheel...
The "poetry.dev-dependencies" section is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use "poetry.group.dev.dependencies" instead.
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc5 in position 26: invalid continuation byte
ERROR: Backend subprocess exited when trying to invoke build_wheel
==> ERROR: An error occurred in build().
The operation will be aborted...
-> error making: python-screeninfo - exit status 4
-> Installation of the following packages failed. Manual intervention is required:
python-screeninfo - exit status
both the packages are giving me the same errors: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc5 in position 26: invalid continuation byte
These are my locales settings

I had a non UTF-8 character in my email configurated for git. Python was trying to build packages using poetry that was reading my git's email from ~/.gitconfig. I changed the non UTF-8 (typo) character and everything worked correctly.
