I assume that "1254" here is the code page.
But you specified --encoding=UTF-8 above, so your default locale uses a
different encoding than the template databases. I would expect that to
cause problems if the template databases contain any charecters where
the encodings differ (such as "ü" in the locale name).

This also looks like window-1254 (or at least some ISO-8859 variant) to
me.
