If you are fortunate, someone will answer you politely and with 
good grace. Ubuntu-specific problems and queries will probably
be dealt with better in Ubuntu fora, simply because they are more
familiar there. 

Anything Debian-specific is definitely on topic here. Questions from 
derivative distributions may be able to be answered - but 
there is no guarantee that we will know specifics which pertain to
e.g. Mepis/Mint/Linspire/Xandros/Edubuntu/Kubuntu or the Knoppix
derivatives of the world. 

One answer - which will not help you in your current situation -
is "Please install Debian" :) Installing Debian will, at least,
mean that we're talking about a common problem :)

With thanks,

Andy

Looks like this is a known bug, with quite a few duplicates,

I might be wrong but I don't think the Debian mailing lists support 
Ubuntu queries.

The Debian IRC channels certainly don't.

UTF8 problem with BitTornado in Ubuntu 7.04

2007-04-22 Thread Christian Matschke
Hi,

I am a linux newbie, sort of. After upgrading from
Ubuntu 6.10 to 7.04, I suddenly experience a problem
with my bittorrent client (Bit Tornado) when there are
German umlauts in the torrent name. It doesn't start,
renaming the .torrent file sitting on my harddrive
doesn't help. The full error message I get is this:

BitTorrent T-0.3.17 (BitTornado)
OS: linux2
Python version: 2.5.1c1 (release25-maint, Apr 12 2007,
21:00:25) 
[GCC 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)]
wxWindows version: 2.6.3.2

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/btdownloadgui", line 476, in onInvoke
apply(event.func, event.args, event.kwargs)
  File "/usr/bin/btdownloadgui", line 2026, in
onChooseFile
self.onChooseFileDone(default, size)
  File "/usr/bin/btdownloadgui", line 2036, in
onChooseFileDone
self.fileNameText.SetLabel('%s' % (lname))
  File

line 11070, in SetLabel

  File "encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in
position 13-18: unsupported Unicode code range

Has anybody looked at this problem yet? I somehow
can't find my way around the Debian site (e.g. what is
the name of the "package" in my case?), that is why I
am sending this email. Is there help?

Best regards,

Christian
