This seems like a variant of an already reported bug. Merging.

Bug#971616: sh: pager: command not found

2020-10-03 Thread Harald Dunkel

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.19.7

I am pretty sure this is not supposed to happen:

# aptitude upgrade
:
Setting up smartmontools (7.1-1~bpo10+1) ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/default/smartmontools ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/init.d/smartmontools ...

Configuration file '/etc/smartd.conf'
 ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
  D : show the differences between the versions
  Z : start a shell to examine the situation
 The default action is to keep your current version.
*** smartd.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? d
sh: pager: command not found
dpkg: error processing package smartmontools (--configure):
 conffile difference visualizer subprocess returned error exit status 127
