I've looked into this - I don't believe this is a QGIS issue, but rather an osgeo4w packaging issue. The issue is that the gdal_merge.bat script runs gdal_merge.py under python2, not python3, which leads to the resulting error. (Indeed this issue applies to all the gdal_*.bat scripts). We'd require equivalent batch files which explicitly run these python utilities under python3.

not confirmed with qgis master installed yesterday on win10 on my laptop... twin check with Giovanni on his laptop confirm the issue. Checking what local condition generate the error
#11
Updated by Luigi Pirelli over 6 years ago
confirmed in this conditions:
Run qgis from start bar => e.g. run C:\<osgeo install>\bin\qgis-dev-bin-g7.4.0.exe
In my first test, that successfully end, I run qgis from cmd or osgeo shell running C:\<osgeo install>\bin\qgis-dev-g7.4.0.bat
e.g. the correct OSGeo4W env is loaded.
the problem seems a OSGe4W packaging problem
#12
Updated by Luigi Pirelli over 6 years ago
as suggested by @jürgen adding load of osge4w env just in any command wrapper fix the issue
#13
Updated by Luigi Pirelli over 6 years ago
what I'm not sure with the above fiex is that setting the osgeo4w env in each command wrapper does not allow to run all comands in a general custom osgeo4w env that can be useful to set for example to set a custom PATH or something else.
