Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: most

I wanted to see why service dcerpcd had not started.

I was in directory /var/log and performed the commands:-

"most auth.log".  
I typed a "b" to go to bottom of the page.  
Then I typed ?dcer to search backwards.  

The system reports "Search failed: dcer".

However if I search from the top of the auth.log file it finds the
string "dcer".

It seems that the backward search ignores what is on the last visible page.
I would classify this as a bug.
I am running on Ubuntu 64-bit server 10.04.2 with most version: 5.0.0a-1
