Public bug reported:

Hello,

This is <http://bugs.debian.org/786938> reported by Vangelis Skarmoutsos against 2015.0.0 beta2:
---- quote
When pressing the "Create control points" button, a window pops up which
shows informational details of the procedure.
In this window, if some directory names are not english (they were greek in
my case) the non english letters are not readable and some strange symbols
appear in their place.
---- unquote

I have doublechecked this and afaict the progress window interprets an
UTF-8 encoded filename as ISO-8859-1 (Umlaut u ("ü") displayed as ü).
See attached screenshot.

FWIW I have also tried it the other way round: Start a xterm  with env LC_ALL=de_AT (latin1, not UTF-8!), generate a directory with latin1 filename, and point hugin there. Hugin is not able to add images in such a directory
ERROR: caught exception: 
Precondition violation!
Unable to open file ''.
