ProgrammingError: You must not use 8-bit bytestrings unless you use a text_factory that can interpret 8-bit bytestrings (like text_factory = str). It is highly recommended that you instead just switch your application to Unicode strings. 

Other information:
I found a similar problem here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/conduit/+bug/371175/+viewstatus

This happens with the Ubuntu Jaunty package as well as with the latest svn version. Makes Conduit unusable :(
