This seems to work fine here with current git. Can you reproduce this with 219 or newer? What's the precise command line you tried? What did you set $SYSTEMD_PAGER to? I am currently using 219 and the issue is still present. Environment Vars: SYSTEMD_PAGER=/usr/bin/most -dw PAGER=/usr/bin/most -dw Command: sudo journalctl -b -0 Let me know if there's any other information you need. Thanks. Is it possible that "sudo" strips the env vars? If you invoke this without sudo, or if you explicitly pass the env vars through sudo, does it work then? No, it doesn't work without sudo either. I think it bears mentioning again that it works fine for systemctl (with and without sudo). It definitely works fine here... Can you rung this through "strace -f -o log -s 500" or so, then check for the child that is used to invoke the pager what it tries to execute? If in doubt attach the relevant log output this generates here... Thanks for the suggestion. I should have though of it. The problem was a function in my .bashrc that I forgot about :-/ Sorry for the pointless bug report. Thanks again for your help. Cheers! |
