Use character names in man pages. Groff currently by default uses latin1 for its input encoding and doesn't support utf-8 at all [1], but Debian can and one day must use utf-8 [2, 3]. By using character names [4] we sidestep the incompatibility.

.SH DESCRIPTION
This utility is used to unsubscribe people from the specified mailinglist. It
will remove the specified email address from every file in the
<listdir>/subscribers.d/ directory.

Unless the \fB\-U\fR switch is used it will switch its user id to the user id
owning the list directory. This is done to make sure that new files created are
having correct permissions.

Normally a mail is sent to the person being unsubscribed if the address is not
subscribed to the list. If the \fB\-s\fR switch is used such a mail will not be
sent.

When neither \fB\-c\fR nor \fB\-C\fR are specified, unsubscription silently
happens.
