Bug#727788: vim: no python support?

[Dale Harris]

Package: vim
Version: 2:7.4.052-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Noticing on SID that vim doesn't have python support compiled in and
there doesn't appear to be an alternative package to provide that
support. I just find that odd since there is still vim-python-jedi out
there which requires a python supporting vim.  Yes, I realize I can
compile my own, I'm just a little surprised at the missing support.
