I'm trying to modify an app I wrote a few months ago, but now it dies
on startup (it worked before). The app loads the SQLite Media Monkey
database, and crashes on its first query (when I try to get the number
of podcasts). At the end of this post is a reduced version of the
problem (which

Oh, this is Python 2.5 on Windows.
New result: this works on Python 2.6. Obviously the SQLite format
changed between the two runs.
I'll call this problem solved; my app appears to run now.

It does not assume that. It *requires* byte strings to be ASCII.
You can't encode Unicode

1. This isn't Unicode; it's missing the u (I printed using repr).
2. It's got the UTF-8 bytes there in the middle.

done). All of a sudden, I discovered that apparently the presence of a
