I got rid of the issue after downgrading.

I use the en_GB and de_DE dictionaries at the same time and the system
language is en_US.

  $ locale
  LANG=en_US.utf8
  LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8"
  LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8"
  LC_TIME="en_US.utf8"
  LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8"
  LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8"
  LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8"
  LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8"
  LC_NAME="en_US.utf8"
  LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8"
  LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8"
  LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8"
  LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8"
  LC_ALL=

I'll ask at
