Error with DNF Upgrade Test Cases / Fedora 22 KDE

Hi all,

I have made a clean install for Fedora 22, updated it and tried to upgrade
it to Fedora 23 following a guide on a mail sent on September 3rd, in the
Test Mailing List(1).

I followed the DNF System Upgrade guide(2), but in the third step it gave
me an error and it seems to me that DNF is now broken, cause i can not
update, upgrade, install nor erase anymore.

The last command that seemed to work was this one:

# dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing

This next command, failed:

# dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=23 [--distro-sync] [--best]

At the end of the traceback the terminal displays, this error appears(i am
in Colombia, spanish/latam install, without aditional l10n):

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 40:
ordinal not in range(128)

This is a second laptop using for testing and i dont mind about a new clean
install,but it would be great if there is a way to solve this problem
without a reinstall.

Just in case, i have copied the whole traceback in PasteBin (3)

Hernán
