Bug description:
The esteemed davmor2 discovered a new UnicodeDecodeError while testing
a new app for the For Purchase section. This application appears to be
the first one we've deployed For Purchase that uses a unicode
character in its title, which explains why we have not seen this
particular one before.
The title of the associated application is "Linux Shell 01 - Manual
Práctico del Shell".
Further details from davmor2:
Bug Description:
A recent magazine came through with a unicode character in the title of the
application and USC/SCA combo was unable to handle it.
Version:
n/a
OS:
64bit Oneiric
USC Version:
5.0.4
Steps To Reproduce:
1. Goto myapps
2. Create an app with a unicode title
3. Myapps will publish this
4. USC will fail to download/install this
Expected Results:
I expect to be able to create an app and publish it. That or we need to
document that only non unicode characters may be applied to a title.
