Uncaught exception Glib.Convert.Error(1, "Invalid byte sequence in conversion input")


Since the above error is from glib, I tried rebuilding unison 2.10.2 after installing the latest update to glib2 (2.8.0-2) -- and it now works!

OK, it's not my day: I just got the Glib error again while syncing a different set of files. But my guess is it is hitting a non-ascii character in a file name it doesn't like: does this sound plausible? I have some dodgy filenames in this set of files that got there from cut'n'paste to name downloaded files...

This would tally with the original poster who was working in French so also probably had accented characters of various sorts in filenames?
