Non-ascii character sets unsupported

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Make an entry in the calendar with non-ascii characters;
2. Use gcalcli to show an agenda containing the entry mentioned above.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected gcalcli would support non-ascii character sets and showed the 
correct characters, without exiting with an error.

Instead gcalcli exits with the following error message:

1.4-4 is out of date in the AUR.  Install gcalcli-git from the AUR instead.  
This should fix your issue.

Please disregard the report above. I've just read the changelog of the latest 
version and apparently the issue is fixed.
