Package: systemd
Version: 251-2
Severity: minor
Note: on my machine, /usr/bin/pager points to the "less" alternative.
When I run journalctl, searching for strings in the "less" pager is
case-sensitive, while I have -i in $LESS.
I've eventually found that my LESS environment variable was replaced
by "FRSXMK", but this is not documented. I could see this by putting
a "pager" script in my $PATH, where I output the $LESS value.
Well, journalctl(1) mentions "FRSXMK", but nothing about the LESS
environment variable (these options could be passed as a "less"
argument), and what "default" means is ambiguous (when the user
defines $LESS, he changes the default).
If the user has his own LESS environment variable, it should be kept,
otherwise the behavior is surprising.

This is documented here:
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/journalctl.html#%24SYSTEMD_LESS
If you want to override the options that are passed to less/the pager,
you can set the SYSTEMD_LESS env variable.
