STINNER Victor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:
It's not a bug. base64 is a codec to encode *bytes* and characters.
You have to encode your unicode string to bytes using a charset
Example (utf-8):
>>> from base64 import b64encode, b64decode
>>> b64encode(u'a\xe9'.encode("utf-8"))
'YcOp'
>>> unicode(b64decode('YcOp'), "utf-8")
u'a\xe9'
