I have a pyz that I'm building on GitHub using an Ubuntu docker container. We're using poetry's pyinstaller command. something like: poetry run pyinstaller test_pyz.spec --noconfirm --distpath build/pyz The test_pyz.spec file has # -*- mode: python ; coding: utf-8 -*- at the top.

It seems like all of the encoding is correct so I'm not sure what's going on here. After some more thought, I don't think we're creating a true pyz but a python executable via pyinstaller.
