if is caused because value is a bytestring contain a non ascii char.
i can only reproduce it if the code is call from a dbus method, it works
fine if i run the code as a normal python script.
the attached patch fixes the issue, does any body have any objection to
commit the patch.
Curiously we have the same problem with the kyum caller here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433168
My only question is - what's going on that makes it work when not being
called from a c program? Is the program not exporting an environment
variable properly?
In this case it is
python (test script) -> dbus -> python (yum2 backend)
I dont have a clue what goes on.
