Package: man-db
Version: 2.13.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When attempting to view manual pages using the "man" command while the 
LESS environment variable is overridden with the "-J" option, the output 
rendered in the terminal becomes garbled. 

Specifically, running the following command demonstrates the issue:
  LESS=-J man bash

Expected Behavior:
The manual page for bash should open and render normally in the pager.

Actual Behavior:
The terminal text display breaks, rendering garbled text.

Regression Info:
* Version 2.12.0-4 of man-db works correctly under identical conditions.
* Version 2.12.1-1 and later versions introduced this broken behavior.

Thank you!
