Package: libpod-markdown-perl
Version: 1.320000-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I generated a README.md from my perl program using pod2markdown.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

pod2markdown myfile > README.md

   * What was the outcome of this action?

See the README.md here:
https://github.com/jcdubacq/compile-latex/tree/7e6b71d6979b58b51fb1dc3cd85f0f7fc3060819

The internal links were in caps, but markdown changes the case of
the linked parts in the anchor name. For example, section DEBUG will
be called DEBUG but have a name #debug for anchor.


   * What outcome did you expect instead?

The links should be transformed in lowercase.
