Description of problem:
The script /usr/bin/lesspipe.sh uses an old, unsupported tar option for bzipped
files.  It uses the old 'I' option which is no longer supported.  It should use
'j' instead.  This causes less file.tar.bz2 to display as garbage.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
less-358-24

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. less /path/to/some/file.tar.bz2

Actual Results:  the file is displayed in less as garbage

Expected Results:  list of tarball's contents should be displayed

Additional info:

Here is the amazingly complicated patch to lesspipe.sh to restore proper bzip2
functionality:
