Title:
  Problem with quoting in man pages

Status in “groff” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: coreutils

  At the bottom of coreutils man pages it says something like:

  If  the
         info and ls programs are properly installed at your site, the command

                info coreutils ’ls invocation’

  Unfortunately, in UTF-8 locales this command is not cut-and-pasteable,
  as the quotes are rendered as curly quotes; they need to be literal
  straight ticks.
