Title:
  automatic hyphenation uses Unicode HYPHEN character

Status in groff package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Open up Konsole. Open the manual page for any manual that has quotes,
  e.g. man find. The straight quote ' and backtick ` are rendered as
  other characters. Setting the environment variable to C fixes this,
  e.g. LANG=C man find. My default environment variable is en_CA.UTF-8.

  This also applies to a regular console outside of X, not just in
  Konsole, so it may be something different than Bug #44231.

  It appears the issue is that many man pages are using old glyphs as
  defined in ASCII. These need to be updated.
