Comment(by otto at kolsi dot fi):

 Replying to [comment:3 stuartm]:
 > My concern is that we have obviously pulled the recgroup name from the
 database somewhere without converting it to unicode - which goes against
 what we do with every other text string. Although it might mean more
 changes, the correct way to handle the problem would be to find where
 we've missed .fromUTF8()

 I thought exactly the same, should have mentioned that in the ticket. I
 very briefly tried to find the place where we pull out the recgroup from
 the database and that seemed to have the correct .fromUTF8() call in
 place. But I could have (and obviously did) missed something.

 If anyone else is having this problem, original patch can be used as a
 workaround but as you said, it's better to fix the initial cause of the
 problem.
