Subject: [PATCH] pr: fix infinite loop when double spacing

* src/pr.c (init_parameters): Ensure we avoid a 0 lines_per_body
which was possible when adjusting for double spacing.
That caused print_page() to always return true,
causing an infinite loop.
* tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Fixes https://bugs.debian.org/1034808

 * Noteworthy changes in release 9.0 (2021-09-24) [stable]

** Bug fixes
+  'pr --length=1 --double-space' no longer enters an infinite loop.
+  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]
+
   tail --follow=name works again with non seekable files.  Previously it
   exited with an "Illegal seek" error when such a file was replaced.
   [bug introduced in fileutils-4.1.6]
