Description Allen Webb 2023-02-24 16:53:48 UTC
less is not built with large file support.

Adding `inherit flag-o-matic` and `append-lfs-flags` (to source_configure()) resolves the issue. AFAICT this does not break any APIs.

```
less-608-r2: 16:12:19.850  * QA Notice: The following files were not built with LFS support:
less-608-r2: 16:12:19.865  *   Please see https://issuetracker.google.com/201531268 for details.
less-608-r2: 16:12:19.880  * fopen /usr/bin/lesskey
less-608-r2: 16:12:19.884  * fopen /usr/bin/less
less-608-r2: 16:12:19.900  * Full build files:

```

Reproducible: Always
