Comment(by atagar):
I see the issue. The problem isn't with the descriptor code (if you use
parse_file() or the DescriptorReader then it works fine). The problem is
that stem's Controller normalizes the content that it receives from the
socket to be unicode rather than bytes. This in turn mangles the contact
line, causing the validation to fail.
In particular, we need to drop the str_tools._to_unicode() call from...
https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/blob/HEAD:/stem/socket.py#l470
... then address the rest of the call stack (msg() in the BaseController,
and all of its callers). Ick.
I pushed some fixes for other things uncovered by using the python 3.x
version of pycrypto, but the Controller issue will take a fair bit more
work to solve.
