[Bug 2104280] Re: [FFe] Pass -SMK to less

[Julian Andres Klode]

https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/merge_requests/470

** Description changed:

  APT in plucky uses a pager, so far we pass LESS=FRX, but this is not
  very intuitive, so I'd like to pass SMK as well:
  
  * S disables the bell
  * M changes the prompt from ":" to "lines 1-2"
  * K makes the pager exit on ctrl+c which makes it more discoverable how to exit
  
  These flags are aligned with systemd; the former set was derived from
  git
+ 
+ This will be bundled with some more bugfixes in apt 2.9.35.
