18160	Auth - Unknown Encoding Error when syncdb	anonymous	nobody	"When I was running `./manage.py syncdb` (with sqlite3), a LookupError shows up
as follow. I filed a patch to fix it.

In the UnitTest, I made `import locale` as inline (Or should I import it at
the beggining of the file?)

    bash $ ./manage.py syncdb
    Creating tables ...
    Creating table auth_permission
    Creating table auth_group_permissions
    Creating table auth_group
    Creating table auth_user_user_permissions
    Creating table auth_user_groups
    Creating table auth_user
    Creating table django_content_type
    Creating table django_session
    Creating table django_site
    Creating table django_admin_log

    You just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any superusers defined.
    Would you like to create one now? (yes/no): yes
