** Description changed:
[Impact]
Any user of the gio backend in duplicity (used by Deja Dup) backing up
to a directory with utf8 characters in it is unable to complete a single
backup.
[Test Case]
mkdir /tmp/source
echo test > /tmp/source/test
mkdir /tmp/Ж
duplicity --gio --no-encryption /tmp/source file:///tmp/Ж
[Regression Potential]
- The patch to fix this mostly affects various exception code paths. But
- each one is pretty simple change (just upgrading ascii to unicode).
+ The upstream patch to fix this mostly affects various exception or
+ logging code paths. But each one is pretty simple change (just
+ upgrading ascii to unicode).
[Original Report]
After upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 from 13.10, Duplicity cannot backup
files. The location it will backup and the location to backup have both
Russian characters in path. I believe this is the reason of the problem.
After failure, duplicity shows this log:

I believe the related script shall be fixed with "u" prefix, as explained
