[yocto] an error when adding "snappy" package

[Reeve Yang]

Hi Gary, the uri.inc is just my include file to point to local package
storage location, and "native" extend I have taken it out.

Yeah, I figured it out this is rpm specific. If I change the
site-packages/smart/backends/rpm/pm.py, line 280 to:

                self.rpmout = reader(open(rpmoutpath), errors = "ignore")

The error would be gone and my tarball is created successfully. My question
is, why yocto assume default encoding is ascii? Is there anyway for me to
specify the encoding in "utf8"?

Thanks.
- Reeve
