[Bug 810255] Re: [MASTER] update-manager crashed with UnicodeEncodeError in get_dbus_message(): 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 56: ordinal not in range(128)

[Colin Watson]

This looks like a dbus-python problem to me; shouldn't it be able to
handle non-ASCII text in its own exceptions?

** Package changed: update-manager (Ubuntu) => dbus-python (Ubuntu)
