Failed to import from YouTrack Cloud with encoding related errors

Hello, I want to move off of the cloud because of the issue http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/JT-3412 – it really makes working with YouTrack inCloud for touch typist not pleasureable.

I tried to restore my on premise 10 user free installation with db backup, but failed. I can provide log if needed.

I tried youtrack2youtrack python client script and after struggling with lots of problems related to encoding managed to import project bundles, but failed to import issues with following error:

Failed to import issue [ mares-88 ].

Reason :

<item id="88" imported="false"><error fieldName="Priority" value="0">Value is un

known</error></item>

Request was :

My system is Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I ran script with Python 2.7.2. I use Chrome to enter issues. I use polish diacritics. Also in States and Types of issues (but I've changed it import my project).
