[Bug 1377873] Re: deja-dup fails to restore missing files, that contain "german umlaut" (ä,ö,ü,Ä,Ö,Ü).

 

..the same here under Ubuntu 14.04 (64.-bit).
Trying to restore some files including the german "Umlaut" (that means the letters ä;ü;ö....) ends with the error message from the first thread. Maybe, it should be checked if it's the same with some french letters like ê,ë,é,è, ç.

Otherwise, with this bug it is impossible to use this good software for german, french and northern users.
It sould be fixed asap...
