** 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.
+ Most non-English users cannot back up to Ubuntu One (the default in Deja Dup) 
at all.
+ 
+ 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.
+ In u1backend.py, an ".encode('utf-8')" needs to be added in the list() 
function.
