Bug Description

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:

# update-alternatives --query pager | head -2
Link: pager
Status: auto

Ubuntu 12.10:

# update-alternatives --query pager | head -2
Name: pager
Link: /usr/bin/pager

This is same bug as the following Debian bug:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=679010

Can you do something about it in the 12.04. LTS ?

This is fixed in Ubuntu 14.04 so I'm closing the default task, but have opened one for 12.04.
