Package: release-notes
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
As the subject says really. Quotes (" and ') in commands in the PDF Release
Notes are "smart"/slanted (e.g. ”*” / ’hold$’) so when commands are copied from
the pdf and pasted into a shell, they don't work. It's necessary to edit the
command to put "straight" quotes into the command instead.
(Annoying and unnecessary!)
PDF I used: "Release Notes for Debian 11 (bullseye), 64-bit PC | December 14,
2021"
Thanks
Alan
