[Spacewalk-list] 1.9 and Unicode

[Ciro Iriarte]

Hi!, a new 1.9 installation is exhibiting the same behaviour and
unnluckily I can't just "delete the problematic host" this time. This
was a new installation on CentOS 6.

Tried upgrading to 2.0 (server and client side) to see if the error
goes away but it's still there.

Logs:
