Title:
  less display is broken when using option to show line numbers

Status in less package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  hi,

  in my .bashrc I have recently added:
  alias less='less -r -N'

  Now, msot of the time, when I open a file, less displays the file
  starting at line 2 (sometimes even at line 38 or more), with no
  possibility to go up in the file. Using "-n <Return>" in less started
  with -N does not solve the problem.

  As soon as I remove the options (particularly -N) the behaviour is OK
  again
