It seems you've triggered two different bugs on btsutils:
Hope that I was able to help enhancing this nice lib by reporting this. It just happened that I found another example of this problem: texlive-latex-base Perhaps this might give an extra chance to verify your investigation.
If the bug was marked as forwarded somewhere whose address contains non-ASCII characters (such as #63389), the call to python's unicode() on such string on the bug's object setForwarded() fails.
I just experienced that most of the problems in Python web programming seem to result out of encoding problems.
It then fall back to the html backend as it causes an exception on the SOAP backend. Unfortunately it seems that the HTML backend is broken, most likely by changes in the structure of the pages on debbugs. A quick workaround on the first bug is to add another parameter, "iso-8859-1", on the unicode() call, but I'll have to investigate further to see if debbugs is really consistent on the encoding of non-ascii characters.
