Hi, thanks to both Clint and you for the help. In /etc/groff/man.local, I removed the comments in front of: . if '\*[.T]'utf8' \ . char - \N'45' and removed the negation ! in front of the first condition: . if '\*[.T]'utf8' \ . tr \[oq]' (I could have removed the condition alltogether) You made my day! :-) Eric Adeodato Simó wrote:

Nevertheless, I don't know if it's a problem of the manpage system or of the manpage writers, and how the writers could circumvent/solve the problem. And this information would be useful before I start filing bugs, or!?Clint already told you how "writers" cand solve the problem. In the meantime, you may find useful the workaround described in the last paragraph of /etc/groff/man.local.
