Comment(by henrik.lilljebjorn at home.se):

 This bug affects me too.

 When upgrading from 0.21 to SVN trunk (17449) the schema update fails with
 a "duplicate entry"-error similar to the original report. Emptying the
 'oldprogram' and 'people' tables enables the update too finish but all
 strings in the updated mysql tables have now been truncated before the
 first non-ascii character (such as the swedish characters åäö).

 By the way Miwer, what mysql command do you use for manually converting
 the varchar directly from latin1 to utf8 without converting to varbinary
 first? (I guess this reveals that mysql-skills are very limited)
