After running category.py with most recent version (Release version: 2.0b3; httplib2 version: 0.9) move I get:
WARNING: Type of 'console_encoding' changed
Was: <type 'str'>
Now: <type 'unicode'>and if I try to move category named "Sabotáže" (notice the "ž"), the script ends with:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 5: ordinal not in range(128) <type 'exceptions.UnicodeDecodeError'>

Could you maybe provide the complete traceback and posting the result of python pwb.py version might be helpful (you don't have to post the usernames). We've made a change recently which could cause that error and Gerrit 203051 might be able to fix it (that's the reason I need a more specific version like the git hash).

I still get the WARNING message, but the script works as should, so it is SOLVED. Thank you.
The warning is a separate and very minor bug -- we need to hide/remove that warning, as it is not something the user can resolve.
@Wesalius: You could avoid the warning about the transliteration target when you add a “u” in front of it. So when your line in the user-config is transliteration_target = 'foo' the warning wouldn't appear with transliteration_target = u'foo'. But you don't have to worry that much about the warning. Regarding console_encoding it would be nice if you could comment on that in T95810.
