Description

It seems like the Python QGIS Plugin installer has problems displaying UTF-8 characters.

As an example I am using german umlauts in the plugin description which is not displayed correctly.

Tested on Ubuntu 8.10 (current SVN trunk) and Win2K with QGIS 1.0 Preview2

It's correct behaviour, just remember to use unicode strings (u'foo') in init.py methods. Note also that QGIS < r9663 didn't support unicode plugin metadata.
