I did the last one, but something doesn't seem right:

[amari at amari ~]
 $ locale
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
[amari at amari ~]
 $ python -c "import locale; print locale.getpreferredencoding()"

[amari at amari ~]
 $

Obviously nothing outputs from that python snippet. :/

Anyway, I did try setting LC_CTYPE manually, and that fixed things --
LC_CTYPE is set, and bzr doesn't give me encoding errors. That seems to be
weird behavior, but I suppose as long as things work, I'll be happy enough
:)

Thanks, John!
