Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.64
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The manual page reads:

       submitter <bug> [<bug> ...] <submitter-email>
           Change the submitter address of a bug or a number of bugs, with `!' 
meaning
           `use the address on the current email as the new submitter address'.
        [...]

In some places like above, there is uneven quotes that start with a
backtick. Please prefer normal single-single or double-double quote
pairs.

For more information aboout the use of quotes, refer to:

    ASCII and Unicode quotation marks by Markus Kuhn
    http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/quotes.html

    Summary: Please do not use the ASCII grave accent (0x60) as a left
    quotation mark together with the ASCII apostrophe (0x27) as the
    corresponding right quotation mark (as in `quote'). Your text will
    otherwise appear rather strange with most modern fonts (e.g., on
    Windows and Mac systems). Only old X Window System fonts and some
    old video terminals show ASCII 0x60/0x27 as left and right
    quotation marks, while most modern systems follow the ISO and
    Unicode standards instead. If you can use only ASCII’s typewriter
    characters, then use the apostrophe character (0x27) as both the
    left and right quotation mark (as in 'quote'). If you can use
    Unicode characters, nice directional quotation marks are available
    in the form of characters U+2018, U+2019, U+201C, and U+201D (as
    in ‘quote’ or “quote”).
