Bug Description

Normally searches are case insensitive, so if I have two files: test and Test then Catfish finds both of them. But if I have non english file names then searches are case sensitive! To reproduce the bug you may create two files in a local language where only case is different like: Тест and тест and then search for тест. It will only find one file. Tested with the Catfish version 0.6.3.

Works fine if I build/install catfish with --python=python3.

As of Catfish 1.0.2-2 in trusty and soon coming to the Stable PPA for Saucy/Trusty, this should be resolved. We are now using Python3 by default.
