Similar problema (I get error in line 77 but position 34):

$ kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/do-release-upgrade", line 77, in <module>
    print _("Checking for a new ubuntu release")
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf3' in position 
34: ordinal not in range(128)

In my case, workaround:

$ kdesudo kate /usr/bin/do-release-upgrade

Go to line 77 and delete "ubuntu" word. Line 77 should be now:
print _("Checking for a new release")

Save and exit. Now run:
$ kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade
