Sorry, Marcos. I wrote my response distractedly last night and didn't finish my thought. I meant to say dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales, then select the appropriate locale.
This is not a bug in tuxpaint. Tuxpaint does the best it can, given that it uses UTF-8 fonts for all languages. If your system doesn't have a UTF-8 locale configured for your language, any application using UTF-8 locales will not work for your language.
