Description:
Hello,
when running tests for py3k I got this error:

2015-03-02 22:49:41,115 [myconnpy_tests:INFO] MySQL Connector/Python unittest using Python v3.4.2
2015-03-02 22:49:41,116 [myconnpy_tests:INFO] Locating mysql binaries (could take a while)

    return codecs.ascii_decode(input, self.errors)[0]
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xcf in position 748: ordinal not in range(128)

How to repeat:
this is how I run tests (it's a make file):

LIB=$$($$python -c "from distutils.command.build import build ; from distutils.core import Distribution ; b = build(Distribution()) ; b.finalize_options() ; print (b.build_purelib)") ;\
mkdir -p $(CURDIR)/mysql_myconnpy/ ; \
PYTHONPATH=$(CURDIR)/$$LIB $$python unittests.py --with-mysql=/usr/ --mysql-topdir=$(CURDIR)/mysql_myconnpy/ --verbosity=2 --bind-address=:: --host=::1 --stats ; \
rm -rf $(CURDIR)/mysql_myconnpy/ ; \

Hello Sandro Tosi,

Thank you for the bug report.
Could you please provide us MySQL version and did you tried in Python 2.6 or 2.7 version?

Thanks,
Chiranjeevi.
