Package: less Version: 436-1 Severity: minor
When searching for lines starting with some characters, less also sometimes hilight parts which match the regexp, except for that they do not start at the start of the line. Searching itself is not effected. Searching for the previous or next matching line works as expected. Used search queries: - /^[^ ].... - /^[a-z].... Reproducing works good on large text-files, e.g. /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL Open the file, and scroll to the end (use key 'G'). (one of the incorrect hilights start exactly 3 KB before the end of the file, so I assume the ^ in my search query matched the start of the buffer at that time, and not the \n) -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.7 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages less depends on: ii debianutils 3.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.11.3-4 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libncurses5 5.7+20100313-5 shared libraries for terminal hand less recommends no packages. less suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
