Bug#714599: [transition-check] FTBFS with perl 5.18

[Frank Lichtenheld]

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.12.4
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi.

I maintain the devscripts package in openSUSE.

There was a problem that it failed to build in current Factory due to
Perl 5.18. The attached patch was submitted by Asterios Dramis.

The error encountered was:
pod2man --utf8 --center=" " --release="Debian Utilities" transition-check.pl > transition-check.1
transition-check.pl around line 66: Expected text after =item, not a number
POD document had syntax errors at /usr/bin/pod2man line 71.

Cheers,
  Frank
