I suspect that you are experiencing bug #799194 [1], which is fixed in
current testing and unstable, but not in stable (jessie).
Or maybe something very similar to that bug.

Could you please try to enable the UTF-8 variant of the German locale?

  root@yoursystem # grep de_DE /etc/locale.gen 
  # de_DE ISO-8859-1
  de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8
  # de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15
  root@yoursystem # locale-gen

and then set this UTF-8 locale?

  root@yoursystem # locale
  LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
  LANGUAGE=de_DE:en
  LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_PAPER="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_ALL=

After doing this, please test apt-listbugs again and tell me whether it
works or fails.

Bye.
