Package: libimage-exiftool-perl
Version: 7.30-1
Severity: normal

The manpage exiftool.1p.gz contains (especially in the EXAMPLES
sections) lots of ’ that should be ' instead.

If you copy a line like

   exiftool ’-DateTimeOriginal>FileModifyDate’ dir

to your shell you will get an error message:

   mitch@yggdrasil:/tmp$ exiftool ’-DateTimeOriginal>FileModifyDate’ .
   File not found: ’-DateTimeOriginal
   
You need to change all ’ to ' to make the examples work which is very
inconvenient:

   mitch@yggdrasil:/tmp$ exiftool '-DateTimeOriginal>FileModifyDate' .
       1 directories scanned
       3 image files updated
       3 image files unchanged


I'm using Etch but I've checked the manpage from current package in
Lenny and it still has the same problem, hence I've opened this bug
directly against the 7.30-1 package.

Regards,
Christian

The blocking bug #457839 is closed since quite some time, and I can't
reproduce the probme either, therefore closing the bug now.
