Version: 1.4~bzr21-1
Severity: important
Trying to scan a business card with non-ASCII letter in the VCard causes
qtqr to throw Python errors.
Eg., a VCARD that has
TITLE:Geschäftsführer
in it first throws
in ZBar Processor data_handler:

Using straight "zbarcam" works as expected - I just get the VCARD info
printed to the screen.
