** Also affects: duplicity (Ubuntu Quantal)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Description changed:
[Impact]
When backing up to Ubuntu One, the duplicity Ubuntu One backend will return
unicode filenames. This can cause UnicodeDecodeErrors in some locales when
mixed with duplicity's UTF-8 translated strings.
For example, pt_BR is affected because it uses non-ascii characters.
+
+ As for Ubuntu, Quantal and Raring are affected. Precise and below don't
+ seem to care.
[Test Case]
sudo apt-get install language-pack-pt-base
LANGUAGE=pt_BR duplicity --no-encryption /bin u1+http://utf8bug
[Fix]
In u1backend.py, an ".encode('utf-8')" needs to be added in the list()
function. Branch merge coming.
