Hi there,
I'm trying to run make check, and I have ~13 tests on vdsm/tests which failes due to the following:

  File "/home/sleviim/git/vdsm/lib/vdsm/api/vdsmapi.py", line 212, in __init__
    loaded_schema = pickle.load(f)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/encodings/ascii.py", line 26, in decode
    return codecs.ascii_decode(input, self.errors)[0]
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x80 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

(Those lines are common to all failures)

Here is an example:

======================================================================
ERROR: test_ok_response (vdsmapi_test.DataVerificationTests)

I've also tried to git clean -dxf && ./autogen.sh --system but it didn't help.

Did you clean in the root directory?

cd vdsm-checkout-dir
git clean -dxf
./autogen.sh --system
make
make check

Also, on which system do you run the tests? Fedora 27? CentOS? RHEL?
