Package: vim
Version: 2:7.3.547-7
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
I researched how could I apply vim settings globally (enabling usefull options
for all users during automated install). Search gave me information that I
could create /etc/vim/vimrc.local file, and that's true, vim tries to open
vimrc.local file:
$ strace vim 2>&1 | grep vimrc
stat("/usr/share/vim/vimrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2191, ...}) = 0
open("/usr/share/vim/vimrc", O_RDONLY) = 4
stat("/usr/share/vim/vimrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2191, ...}) = 0
stat("/etc/vim/vimrc.local", 0x7fff5e84b2c0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/etc/vim/vimrc.local", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat("/home/vincas/.vimrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=131, ...}) = 0
open("/home/vincas/.vimrc", O_RDONLY) = 4
stat("/home/vincas/.vimrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=131, ...}) = 0
While manual page menions files like:
/usr/share/vim/vimrc
~/.vimrc
but there are no info about possibility to use /etc/vim/* files.
