Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: This is not a bug. Your code that produces "very nasty filename" is the right one - the file name is actually the one you asked for. The second code is also behaving correctly: filename already *is* a bytestring, calling .encode for it is meaningless.
