Album Cover Art Downloader does not start

Today I've run into my first problem caused by upgrading Ubuntu to version 7.04 - Album Cover Art Downloader (version 1.6.0) stopped working.

If you try to run Album Cover Art Downloader (by typing albumart-qt in the console) and get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/albumart-qt", line 145, in 
sys.exit(runGui())
File "/usr/bin/albumart-qt", line 77, in runGui
import albumart_dialog
File "/usr/lib/albumart/albumart_dialog.py", line 32, in 
from pixmap import getPixmapForPath
File "/usr/lib/albumart/pixmap.py", line 4, in 
import albumart_images
File "/usr/lib/albumart/albumart_images.py", line 6
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xa0' in file 
/usr/lib/albumart/albumart_images.py on line 6, but no encoding declared; 
see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
open the /usr/lib/albumart/albumart_images.py and in the first or second line in the file add:
