Signing encoding error.

[F483]

7:04 AM @F483 on line 283 of control.py in btctxstore: the first parameter to struct needs to be a byte string otherwise it doesn't run on windows. I don't have commit access so I can't change this but might want to look into it.

I don't think its that simple, the error must be before that as all input should be sanitized and normalized before it gets that far. I will check if the unittest cover all possible inputs and add them if not. Then fix anything that breaks.

@robertsdotpm do you have a stack trace or the input that caused the problem.

Not sure if it is the stacktrace you are looking for:

Centos 7
Python 2.7.5 and 2.7.10
btctxstore 4.6.1
