Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bzr-builddeb

import-dsc sets author information from debian/changelog and/or
debian/control as revision property as bytestrings. At least using bzr
2.0 chk_serializer's write_revision_to_string tries to encode those to
utf-8, which fails if the names aren't ascii. I'll attach the crash
file. You should be able to use lv2core_1.0ubuntu1.dsc to reproduce
this, which you can get using "apt-get source lv2core" in karmic. If
that doesn't work for some reason please say so and I'll cook up a
failing dsc.

I've hacked around this for now by decoding to unicode in two spots in
bzr-builddeb. See lp:~marienz/+junk/import-dsc-hack for that. It's in
+junk because I don't have the faintest idea if this fix is correct.
