command-not-found crashed when using non-ascii characters (eg: é, à, è)

[Alexandre Rose]

command-not-found seems to be unable to handle unknown charaters such as (é, à, è, û)

Here is the message it returns:

It also affects version 0.3, in my Ubuntu Quantal..

I can also see that the letter "æ" "ø" and "å" also makes it crash..

Here is a trace:

Same here with Ubuntu 12.04,
sometimes I press the "ù" key which is near the enter key, my kayboard has an Italian layout.

The error message is:
