I've already reported the bug here<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openstv/+bug/833343> on
Launchpad, but here we go again:

Run the attached ballot file using Meek STV and a display width of 100
characters (the default for the GUI version of the program); nothing in
particular should happen. Now run it again with a display width of 80
characters, and the program crashes. Changing the name of the candidate
"Mana ಠдಠ" to "Mana" works around the issue.

Here's the traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

The page I link to has more technical details such as version details,
environment variables and more.

OpenSTV 1.6.1 does not support unicode.  The latest version, 2.0.0, does and
is available for download at openstv.org.

For future reference, OpenSTV bugs should be reported here and not at
Launchpad.

Jeff
