Title:
[FFe] Pass -SMK to less
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
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.
