Breaks with coverage 5.0

[skwashd]

The 5.0 release of the coverage package contains backwards compatibility breaking changes. One of those changes was removing the Reporter class. This results in the following output in Travis CI:

$ coveralls
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/travis/virtualenv/python3.7.1/bin/coveralls", line 10, in <module>
    sys.exit(wear())

For info, I have this issue too with Frappe apps (frappe/frappe#9169), but after pinning coverage version to 4.5.4 I have a new error :

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x96 in position 106: invalid start byte

The source code analyzed has not changed and, of course, I did not had this error before.
I saw #31 and #30 but the solution does not apply in my case. Maybe it's not related, but has anyone encountered this and found a solution ?

Any news on supporting coverage>=5?

@hartwork unless there is something you specifically need here, this worked for me:
