[Damyan Ivanov <dmn@debian.org>]

Package: dpkg-sig
Version: 0.13.1
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS
User: debian-perl@lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.18-transition

dpkg-sig fails to build in a clean pbuilder chroot on amd64:

pod2man --section=7 --release="Debian Project" --center="Debian GNU/Linux manual" dpkg-sig debian/dpkg-sig/usr/share/man/man7/dpkg-sig.7
dpkg-sig around line 1584: You forgot a '=back' before '=head2'
POD document had syntax errors at /usr/bin/pod2man line 71.
make: *** [binary-indep] Error 255
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2
