Alexander Belopolsky <belopol...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Similar logic can be written simpler as

use_pager = os.environ.get('MANPAGER') or os.environ.get('PAGER')
if use_pager:
  ...
(yes, I think ignoring empty *PAGER is preferable to an error)

I am not sure, pydoc should respect MANPAGER.  Why not PYDOCPAGER?

In any case this is a feature request rather than a bug.
