We are running everything on MySQL, not SQLite. Unfortunately, I can't

The problem is that I can't convert those characters. The mysql-python
library tries to use the UTF8 converter and fails. I'm sorry. This
time those characters were replaced with "???" (which at least makes
sure you won't have problems with displaying any tickets, unlike
before...).

Which DB has which encoding? "???" normally occur when the client is set to accept SQL-char and receives unicode and this is unrelated to Python. You should at least be able to use Latin-15 for the encoding.

However, there may still be problems using phpMyAdmin to generate the backup as this does not necessarily produce the same format as mysqldump which I would suggest for this.

I would also suggest keeping the existing Bugzilla for bugs until Trac is working correctly then announcing when the migration will take place. I used to be able to migrate both old yT bug databases into a single Trac instance in 15 minutes including customisations of the data model.
