Firstly, a couple of disclaimers:

   - I'm not a pro developer, and I'm relatively new to Python and Spyder, 
   so this could easily be user error
   - I'm aware of the similar - but not quite the same - bug 2277 
   <https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/2277>

Environmental Details:

   - Mac running OSX 10.9.5
   - Spyder 2.3.4 installed through Anaconda
   - Python 2.7.9 64bits, Qt 4.8.6, PyQt4 (API v2) 4.11.3 on Darwin

I've written a python file that imports (amongst other things) 
scrapy.crawler, that fails during debugging when I call 
crawler.configure()

I see in the IPython console the error:


*  File 
"/Users/neildewar/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/spyderlib/widgets/externalshell/sitecustomize.py",
 
line 432, in notify_spyder*
*    fname = unicode(fname, "utf-8")*

*TypeError: decoding Unicode is not supported*



This symptom is identical to the symptom reported in 2277, but my situation 
differs in that I'm not (knowingly) using 
pdb.set_trace()

Also, greenorca reported being able to locate breakpoints in the imported 
module and that removing them resolve the issue.  I can find no breakpoints 
in sitecustomize.py (though I'm unclear if this is where greenorca found 
them).

Please can you advise:

   - Is this the same issue as 2277?
   - If not, is it a bug and should I post on GitHub?
   - Is there anything I can do to work around the issue?   (eg, where are 
   the breakpoints that need to be removed)

Many thanks
