Isn't that usually a symlink to `less` or `more`, or what have you? Maybe
via /etc/alternatives. In this case it would mean that you don't have that
symlink set, so try first:

$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/pager

...and if that's not set either, then I guess you can do:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/less /usr/bin/pager

...or some other pager instead of less. Or it could be that I'm just
talking out of my ass here.

I would say that's a whole 'nother issue altogether. I'll leave debugging
of it for people more suited for similar problems. :)
