Bug Description
$ rpm -q mailcap lesspipe elinks
mailcap-
lesspipe-
package elinks is not installed
$ touch /tmp/lala.html
$ less /tmp/lala.html
# now xterm is spawned with contents:
/usr/bin/xterm: Can't execvp /usr/bin/elinks: No such file or directory
if that xterm is exited, less continues to work, i.e displays file contents
lesspipe should filter contents, not spawn GUI programs
