pytz.exceptions.UnknownTimeZoneError: 'GMT'

[Bahman Eslami]

I saved a UFO file in another program and on update font goggles choked on the refreshing and I got this error:

I can't reproduce it after I restarted fontGoggles though :)

[Cosimo Lupo]

very strange.. it looks like a bug in pyfilesystem2 (fs module).

[Cosimo Lupo]

in theory pytz should no longer be a dependency of pyfilesystem2, so i'm surprised it gets called there.
PyFilesystem/pyfilesystem2#516
which version of fs module have you got installed?

[Just van Rossum]

FontGoggles doesn't pin fs, so I guess it is the one that was current during the last FontGoggles release.
