Hi Bill,

I suspect this may be a problem with unicode normalization in mac file
names.

Could you please run

!python -c 'import os;print os.listdir("iTunes/iTunes Music/")'

and paste the relevant section about this name, probably as a quoted
string.

Hello Martin,

I ran the python line you asked and the "Mel Torme" item was-

'Mel Torme\xcc\x81'

I noticed another unicode-y folder that I'll mention, in case this helps you understand how OSX handles these names-

'Queensry\xcc\x88che'

which is this band, for reference - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queensrÿche

Thanks for your help, and I remain happy to get more information about my system.

I gave it another try with bzr 1.11 and got the same results. I'll paste in the information I pasted above again, expect when being run with bzr 1.11.

Damn, Bill, you also broke Launchpad's URL identification code. You have a talent for this stuff! Filed https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-foundations/+bug/319927
