8151	UnicodeDecodeError from /django/contrib/admin/options.py in save_change	Karen Tracey	nobody	"As reported here: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/msg/845d2a8899bbb57c

The failing line of code in the dpaste traceback is:

{{{
File ""/home/rime/www/tammeoue/packages/django/contrib/admin/options.py"" in save_change
  431.         msg = _('The %(name)s ""%(obj)s"" was changed successfully.') % {'name': force_unicode(opts.verbose_name), 'obj': new_object}
}}}


This is similar to #7992/#8016 -- some code that moved from django/contrib/admin/views/main.py in old admin to django/contrib/admin/options.py in newforms-admin was missed when the Unicode changes were merged from trunk to newforms-admin.  The corresponding line of code in pre-NFA (http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/tags/notable_moments/pre-newforms-admin/django/contrib/admin/views/main.py#L354) is:

{{{
            msg = _('The %(name)s ""%(obj)s"" was changed successfully.') % {'name': force_unicode(opts.verbose_name), 'obj': force_unicode(new_object)}
}}}

That is, there is a force_unicode around the `new_object` as well as `opts.verbose_name`.  It's probably worth a closer look to see if any other places have been missed; I'll do this when I get a chance but don't wait on me to fix it if someone else gets to it first."		closed	contrib.admin	dev		fixed		eallik@…	Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
