Changing filenames from Greeklish => Greek (subprocess complain)

Yes this is a linxu issue although locale is se to utf-8

root at nikos [~]# locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
root at nikos [~]#


Since 'locale' is set to 'utf-8' why when i:

'mv 'Euxi tou Ihsou.mp3' 'Ευχή του Ιησού.mp3'

lead to that unknown encoded bytestream '\305\365\367\336\\364\357\365\311\347\363\357\375.mp3'

which isn't by default an utf-8 bytestream as locale indicated and python expected?

how 'files.py' is supposed to read this file now using:

# Compute a set of current fullpaths 
fullpaths = set() 
path = "/home/nikos/public_html/data/apps/" 

for root, dirs, files in os.walk(path): 
        for fullpath in files: 
                fullpaths.add( os.path.join(root, fullpath) )
