So I've upgraded to trixie and it comes with apt 3. For some reason the new apt insists on opening the output of some commands in less. For example, "apt list --upgradable" or "apt search" opens the output i less. I can't find how I turn this behavior off. Any advice?

try setting the PAGER env variable to cat. if it works maybe make a wrapper script/function to set it just during apt execution

Great! It works. Wonder what wrapper it might be, it behaves the same in zsh, dash and bash.
