On my Debian unstable system, odt2txt properly works with the attached file.
With pt_BR.UTF-8, de_DE and de_DE.UTF-8 I can see "Voß" without any problems (running both "odt2txt odt2txt_bugreport_example.ods" and "odt2txt --raw odt2txt_bugreport_example.ods"). With LC_ALL=C I see "Voss" instead "Voß" (but it doesn't hang nor give any error message).
