utf-8 problems in pathname

[Marcus]

When i'm trying to restore some files from a former backuped directory duplicity run in the following tuble:

Deleting /Volumes/high5/.tmp/duplicity-Ure8Jv-tempdir/mktemp-UUGBT9-6
Processed volume 5 of 279
Traceback (most recent call last):

    % (globals.restore_dir,),
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 20: ordinal not in range(128)

The path which i tried to restore contains an german mutated vowel (Warnemünde) so maybe this is the problem?

This affects every Finnish Ubuntu user, because Desktop is called Työpöytä.

Deja-dup fails when trying to "restore lost files" in Nautilus (menu opened by clicking with second mouse button of the folder area in Desktop=Työpöytä). Also files that has characters åäöü in their names cannot be restored/reverted.

A "workaround" is to restore a full backup to temporary location.

Does not exist in Precise (deja-dup 22.0-0ubuntu5 and duplicity 0.6.18-0ubuntu3.5). Regression in Trusty (deja-dup 30.0-0ubuntu4 and duplicity 0.6.23-1ubuntu4.1).
