[Pkg-bazaar-maint] Bug#458157: bzr: acute accent marks in man page

[Russ Allbery]

Package: bzr
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: minor

The man page generated by the generate_docs.py tool tries to escape
apostrophes with \.  This doesn't work correctly with a current groff.
\' is converted to an acute accent mark rather than an apostrophe.

With groff, what you want is \(aq.  Unfortunately, that's groff-specific
and won't work with, for example, Solaris man.

Pod::Man adds:

.ie \n(.g .ds Aq \(aq
.el       .ds Aq '

to the preamble of the man page and then uses \*(Aq as the escape for
apostrophes in the man page.
