So, I tried again setting LANG=C and I noticed that while the website builds, the output has character enconding issues. For example what should be a right arrow in

copy 'static/media/css/video-preview.css' ? 'static/media/css/video-preview.css'

is replaced by a question mark.

However, if I set LANG=fr_FR.utf8, everything works correctly :)
