Short story:

You are using an invalid locale.  Try LC_ALL=de_DE.

Long story:

LC_CTYPE is the character set to use, and LANG is the language
to use.  LC_ALL overrides these (IIRC).  However, it isn't setting
LC_CTYPE to an appropriate character set for that language.  (Perhaps
it should)

Anyway, I don't think this is a Parted issue.
