This list is just about maintenance of Debian's Vim packages, not
general Vim support.  You'll be better off asking such questions on the
Vim user list.  See http://www.vim.org/maillist.php#vim for details.

Something is likely changing the 'iskeyword' option by adding the .
character to it.  The command “:verbose set iskeyword?” should confirm
that and report which script is doing so.
