Fix manpage quotation found by lintian
Last-Update: 2020-10-31 An apostrophe at the beginning of the line is a command for (g)roff, so it must be either escaped or moved away from the beginning of the line to have a real apostrophe. The sequence \' doesn't stand for an apostrophe, however, but an acute accent. There are escaped sequences for an apostrophe, but they don't seem to be portable. Therefore, the easiest solution is to move the apostrophe away from the beginning of the line. Gbp-Pq: Name 006-fix-quotation-in-manpage
