[Bug] Mojibake in scoop info "Updated by"

[tech189]

Bug Report

Current Behavior

When running scoop info yosys the output of the "Updated by:" section has garbled characters.

Expected Behavior

"Updated by" should output proper characters of the author's name.

Additional context/output

❯ scoop info yosys

Name        : yosys
Description : Framework for Verilog RTL synthesis
Version     : 0.9
Bucket      : main
Website     : http://www.clifford.at/yosys/about.html
License     : ISC
Updated at  : 03/11/2020 17:24:54
Updated by  : Jakub Čábera
Binaries    : yosys.exe | yosys-abc.exe

Čábera should be Čábera

Possible Solution

Honestly not sure how PowerShell handles unicode! This Mojibake Decoder says that the name was encoded with cp437.

System details

Windows version: 11

OS architecture: 64bit

PowerShell version: 7.2.2

Hey @tech189!

Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, this bug is not in Scoop, it is in upstream PowerShell. And whether this affects one is dependent on region/location settings of the system. To work around it, you can follow this comment - lptstr/winfetch#132 (comment)
