Bug#762269: perl: divergence tracking: debian/perldoc-less-R.diff

[Dominic Hargreaves]

Source: perl
Version: 5.20.0-5
Severity: normal

Bug #758689 was fixed by adding a local patch to set $ENV{LESS}.
This has some flaws, at least it breaks if the user is locally setting
less options (AIUI). There was some discussion[1] about switching the
default formatter to ToMan with the Pod::Man utf8 switch but this is
also problematic.

Meanwhile, although it's not perfect, should this patch be forwarded
upstream?
