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.
