I came across this in the unison docs (see, e.g. [1]):
4) setup your locale environment properly
for example, export LANG=zh_HK.BIG5-HKSCS
otherwise, you will get
Uncaught exception Glib.GError("Invalid byte sequence in conversion input")
I can confirm that this fix works for me (I had to set up an
artificial test, which is why it took me a while to try it).
This is on 10.3.9 with unison 2.10.2 from the 10.3 fink
distribution [i.e. not the binary from 10.4-transitional, I
haven't tried that on 10.3.9, only the 2.13 binary].
But regarding your second email, I don't seem to have any
executable "locale" in my path, so "locale -a" didn't work
to get a list of valid options. I just used
export LANG=en_GB.ISO8859-1
since that setting is appropriate for me.
Many thanks for spotting this,
