UnicodeDecodeError while running python setup.py install

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Fix:
edited the readme() function in setup.py. open README.md with encoding utf8

def readme():
"""Get readme.
Returns:
str, readme content string.
"""
with open('README.md', encoding="utf8") as fid:
content = fid.read()
return content
""

I faced the same issue. I am wondering why this is not fixed in the main branch.
