Based on traceback I think you got this problem while trying to open bookmarks file in your editor. For some reason your Ubuntu crashes with unicode error, maybe because some paths has non-ascii characters? maybe that was your home directory? Anyway there is nothing obviously wrong in bzr-explorer itself.
