Public bug reported: Support for .whl/.egg files (used in Python packaging) was added to lesspipe in version 487-0.1 of less[1], but the lesspipe(1) manual page was apparently not updated at the time, and does not currenly list .whl/.egg as supported file types.
This looks like a Debian bug, since the manual page was apparently written for Debian, but reportbug complains at me when I try to use it to submit a bug to the Debian BTS, so hopefully someone who knows what they're doing can report this upstream.
