Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. touch ~/foo_åäö
2. In Nautilus, point at the file created in step 1
3. Right-click for context menu
4. Select Move to Trash
5. Press Ctrl-Z/Select Undo from the Edit menu

What happens:
Nothing

What I expect to happen:
For the file to recover from trash to ~.

What works:
* Undoing Move to Trash with files with no scandinavian letters in their path/filename.
* Recovering foo_åäö by opening Trash and selecting Recover from context menu.

More info:
* Could be that more characters, perhaps all non-ASCII characters render Nautilus' Undo impotent — I've only tested å, ä and ö.
* The Finnish translation for Desktop (~/Desktop) is Työpöytä, which means files moved to trash from Desktop can't be recovered. Nasty.

This bug was fixed in the package nautilus - 1:3.4.0-0ubuntu3

---------------
nautilus (1:3.4.0-0ubuntu3) precise; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/dont_wrap_labels_after_dots.patch:
    - don't wrap labels after a dot if they are followed by a number,
      the upstream code has a hack for 3 digit version numbers which
      doesn't really make sense (lp: #942539)
  * debian/patches/git_utf_undo.patch:
    - git patch, fix undo failing to restore files with non ascii chars
      (lp: #973620)
