hi there.

- Using ubuntu 17.10 with python 2.7

- Is there fix for this bug ? or any other good workaround ? something else than manually restart bftp.py and renaming files between stop and start ?

update path.py ?
wget https://github.com/jaraco/path.py/blob/master/path.py

What makes bftp to "crash"

touch /blindftp/send/€.txt

###python 2.7 errors..
