I even tried to set LC_ALL=C but I can't replicate this issue: with
LC_ALL=C I got some weird chars next to "nslcd.service - LSB: LDAP
connection daemon" instead of the dot that should be there with UTF-8
encoding.

So, can you try to edit this file (I know it's bad!)
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/reportbug/ui/text_ui.py and change

fd.write(text)

into

fd.write(text.encode('utf-8'))

and tell me if this fixes the problem?
