With the recent adoption of $PAGER in `guix search` I'm experiencing an issue. The some of the firsts lines are not shown if the output long enough to cover the full screen so I can't see the first package name. It forces me to scroll down and up again.

Is this happening to others too?

Yes! It looks like (at least) rendering ‘description’ doesn't account for the length of the "description: " prefix itself, making the first line too long. That confuses less and/or makes it wrap non-deterministically.

After invoking ‘guix search foo’, name and version are missing, and:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
description: This package aims to provide a one-stop solution to requirements for footnotes. It offers: Multiple footnote + apparatus superior to that of `manyfoot'. Footnotes can be formatted in separate paragraphs, or be run into a
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

After scrolling down and then up:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
description: This package aims to provide a one-stop solution to requirements for footnotes. It offers: Multiple footnoteus superior to that of `manyfoot'. Footnotes can be formatted in separate paragraphs, or be run into a
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

(‘footnoteus’). The description ‘shrinks’ by 2 lines, making room for the name and version fields at the top.

Kind regards,
