1.0.5, crash on init, unicode folder name

[anonymous]

I used to have a previous version (some older RC, IIRC), and i upgraded to RC8 (using the ubuntu intrepid .deb)

And now I can no longer run the program.

I investigated a bit: it seems that's it's the daemon that doesn't start. so I ran it with "-d", and I got this log:

[DEBUG   ] 21:47:00 torrentmanager:310 options: {'max_download_speed_per_torrent': -1.0, 'add_paused': False, 'prioritize_first_last_pieces': True, 'max_upload_speed_per_torrent': -1.0, 'auto_managed': True, 'max_connections_per_torrent': -1, 'download_location': u'/home/xavier/Vid\xe9os', 'file_priorities': [1, 1], 'compact_allocation': False, 'max_upload_slots_per_torrent': -1}

I confirm! I applied the changes from [3819], and it works now.

The fix doesn't work when you load a str containing unicode characters, since the encode('utf-8') function assumes the string only contains ascii characters. Try running u'æøå'.encode('utf-8').encode('utf-8) the second encode fails. I get this error on 1.0.5.

[Adam Ehlers Nyholm Thomsen <adament@gmail.com>]

I just realised I should probably mention I run python 2.6 but I just tried the double encode on python 2.3.4 and it gave the same error.
