Comment (by neteler):

Replying to [comment:3 sebastic]:
> As reported in [https://bugs.debian.org/676190 Debian Bug #676190], this
issue is still present in GRASS 7.0.1. When non-ascii characters are in
the grass data path, the 'Select source mapset:' dropdown is populated
with empty options. When no non-ascii characters are the path the dropdown
is populated with the expected mapsets.

Anybody able to identify the change we need to backport?
