Thanks for looking into this Christian. I suspected this may be locale-dependent because when I look at the manpage source file the quoting looks different for different languages. I tried various tests looking at just the output of "perldoc exiftool", and can't find a way to keep the quotes from being translated when LANG is de_DE.UTF-8. I tried escaping the line as code (C<>), and indenting the line as is done for code examples in POD documentation. Both options make the documentation less readable, and neither fixes the quote problem.

There is already a bug report on this problem:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=457839

which recommends using "\(aq" as you mentioned. If this really is the solution, then it appears to be a pod2man problem because I can't find anything I can do to improve the situation.

- Phil
