This happens when a nickname has non-Latin characters, in this block of code:

    def _signal_text_received(self, id, timestamp, sender, type, flags,
sender_nick, text):
        self.Received(id, timestamp, sender, type, flags, text)
        headers = dbus.Dictionary({dbus.String('message-received') :
dbus.UInt64(timestamp),
                   dbus.String('pending-message-id') : dbus.UInt32(id),
                   dbus.String('message-sender') : dbus.UInt32(sender),
                   dbus.String('message-type') : dbus.UInt32(type)
                  }, signature='sv')

        if sender_nick not in (None, ''):
            headers[dbus.String('sender-nickname')] = dbus.String(sender_nick)

        body = dbus.Dictionary({dbus.String('content-type'):
dbus.String('text/plain'),
                dbus.String('content'): dbus.String(text)
               }, signature='sv')
        message = dbus.Array([headers, body], signature='a{sv}')
        self.MessageReceived(message)

I am not an expert in Python, but I think that the problem is in the signature
of the dbus dictionaries (sv), because it supposes that the string given as key
is ascii. Perhaps that can be solved using "uv" as signature, or no signature
at all.
