Hello,

While working on impressive-gettransition manpage, I found that it did not
compile on my UTF-8 environment:
% ./rules impressive-gettransitions.1
pod2man --section=1 --release="Debian Project" \
            --center="Debian GNU/Linux manual" impressive-gettransitions.pod \
    | sed -e "s/×/\\[mu]/g" -e "s/é/\\\['e]/g" > impressive-gettransitions.1
sed: -e expression n°1, caractère 11: commande `s' inachevée
make: *** [impressive-gettransitions.1] Erreur 1

It seems this error comes from a non-UTF-8 sed rule, that is useless with this
manpage. I suggest to just drop that sed command, as it still produces a usable
manpage (tested). That is the point of the attached patch.

Regards,
