At some point in the next few weeks I'll make a new release, upload it to Debian and get it synced to Ubuntu.
Since the patch is only a workaround, it would be good to have a proper fix; guess the encoding using chardet or similar and coerce the bytes into Unicode. Any help with that is welcome.
Thanks, I have forward-ported the patch, added a commit message and pushed the patch upstream:
