Bug#787826: libhtml-parser-perl: example of encode_entities() in manual miss the entities to encode = pod2man needs --utf8 arg

[Mathieu Roy]

Package: libhtml-parser-perl
Version: 3.71-1+b3
Severity: minor

As described in bug #787821,

man HTML::Entities gives as example 

       For example, this:

        $input = "vis-a-vis Beyonce's naieve\npapier-mache resume";
        print encode_entities($input), "\n"

As pointed out by Damyan Ivanov

perldoc HTML::Entities gives proper

    For example, this:

     $input = "vis-à-vis Beyoncé's naïve\npapier-mâché résumé";
     print encode_entities($input), "\n"

and the issue is probably the missing --utf8 argument for pod2man command since

pod2man --utf8 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.20/HTML/Entities.pm     |   man -l -

gives the proper string with accents.
