-I think that the "glacier" program you have installed is
-the one from boto, not the one from glacier-cli. git-annex only supports
-the glacier-cli one.

 Note that, since version 5.20150219, git-annex probes to see if the
 "glacier" program in PATH is the one from boto, and fails with a nicer
 error message.

+The UnicodeDecodeError is mentioned in the thread for
+[[special_remotes/glacier]] too. There is a workaround posted in that
+thread. It would probably be good to nudge the boto maintainers to apply
+the fix, which has been available for at least 3 months now.
