Subject: /usr/bin/man: Search command not working with pager more
Package: man-db
Version: 2.6.7.1-1
File: /usr/bin/man
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I installed Jessie using the daily amd64 netinstaller snapshot
20140803-04:28.
In the Xfce terminal searching within a man page is not possible
anymore. The search pattern, which exists in the
man page, is not highlighted with the "more "pager and after pressing
several times the "n" key the man page program quits with the error
message "Pattern not found".
Installing the "less" pager resolves the problem.
