Re: [Po4a-devel] Bug#480997: pod2man turns UTF8 into "X"s

Here's the POD version of the French translation of the po4a.1
manpage.
You can look for "suivant.:" in this file and in the generated file.
When "S<suivant :>" generates "suivant\xA0:", this lead an
invalid UTF-8
file, which will be considered as a latin-1 file by programs like vim or
man.
Wow, that's remarkably broken (and the bug is in Pod::Simple). Thanks.
I'll try to find a good way to work around this bug while still preserving
the intended behavior, and failing that, will just not convert
non-breaking spaces.
