Title:
software-center-dbus crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in
parse_applications_menu(): 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in
position 5: ordinal not in range(128)
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
As I opened the Software-updater in the dash, apport repported the crash in
Software-center-dbus. The crash had no visible effect.
Software-center also chrashes if I start it, but I'm not sure if that's the
same error.
