On some systems (tested with official Debian Buster-based Python 3.6 docker image), setting the LC_ALL environment variable to en_US.UTF-8 will trigger Python into switching its preferred encoding to ASCII. If any python process tries to read a non-ASCII file in this scenario, it will terminate with an error. And this is exactly what happens to pytest when it tries to load its configuration that ansible-test supplies because the configuration contains an em dash. In order to bypass this issue, we replaced the em dash with a regular dash and things started working again. An alternative solution would be to replace the en_US.UTF-8 locale with something safer, but unfortunately, the en_US.UTF-8 is probably as safe as it gets.
