Title:
  command-not-found crashed with UnicodeEncodeError in
  print_spelling_suggestion(): 'ascii' codec can't encode character
  u'\xe9' in position 26: ordinal not in range(128)

Status in “command-not-found” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  TEST CASE
  1. On a french Precise run in a terminal:
  $ LC_ALL=C thisapplicationdoesntexists

  ACTUAL RESULT:
  crash

  EXPECTED RESULT
  The usual command-not-found output when an application is not installed or doesn't exists

  Note that I removed the call of main though crash_guard in command-
  not-found to catch this error otherwise it just says it crashed
  without any useful information.
