What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Create a image who's title contains any unicode-character (åäö etc) 2. Try to remove it... 3. ...and it returns with a UnicodeEncodeError

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Django 1.0 final, using the development server on OS X 10.5.

From what I can see it looks like your running into collisions with an old pre-unicode version. From you traceback I can see the code doesn’t match. See here:

http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/admin/options.py

Line 683:

obj_display = force_unicode(obj)

Not:

obj_display = str(object)

...like your dpaste at line 40 (692).

You probably need to remove the the version of django from "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/", which looks like it was installed using MacPorts and reinstall Django 1.0. You also might want to look into running Django in a virtualenv as it makes these collisions less likely.
