Charset seem to be ISO-8859 even when system is set to UTF-8 #70

Hello,
I set the Raspberry to UTF-8 and the character encoding of the terminal (screenshot is Terminus, but it's the same, when I try Putty) to UTF-8 aswell.

The borders seem to use the wrong encoding. MC for example works fine without any crumbled screen.

If I set the character encoding to ISO-8859 on putty/terminus, wavemon looks pretty again, but mc is crumbled. Actually this would be right, because the Raspberry rUns still on UTF-8

So my guess is that wavemon does not regotnize the charset of the system and falls back to ISO-8859...
Is there a way to tell wavemon to use UTF-8 e.g. in the config file?

I forgot: These are my locales settings:
root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# locale LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

The problem persist aswell, when I set LC_ALL and LANGUAGE
