Why does pg_dumpall use the wrong encoding in Ubuntu 16.04 / Postgres 9.5?

I cannot run a "pg_upgradecluster" because there are problems with pg_dumpall. I have set the encoding to UTF8 everywhere on the server but pg_dumpall always uses

"SET client_encoding = ‘LATIN1’;"

. Where does this "LATIN1" come from?

postgres=# show server_encoding; show client_encoding;


server_encoding
-----------------
 UTF8
(1 row)

 client_encoding
-----------------
 UTF8
(1 row)

Because of the wrong encoding I get errors:

pg_dump: Dumping the contents of table "TBLDATEN" failed:
PQgetResult() failed. pg_dump: Error message from server: ERROR:
character with byte sequence 0xe2 0x80 0xa6 in encoding "UTF8" has no
equivalent in encoding "LATIN1"

I have the same problem with pg_dump but then I can use

pg_dump -E UTF8

to set the correct encoding.
