Package: vim
Version: 2:8.2.4793-1
Severity: normal

I just switched from an "old" machine (installed ~ 5 years ago) to a
new machine. Suddenly I could no longer insert with the middle mouse
button as root on the console.

If I run (after startup) "set mouse=r" (or n) then it worked, but I
did not want to run this manual every time.

So I put this in /etc/vim/vimrc, but nothing changed, i.e. only
"strange" pasting (not the selected string from another console as
expected). Also "mouse=" did not work.

If I create ~/.vim/vimrc with the single entry
set mouse=
then it works again.

So somehow /etc/vim/vimrc seems to be ignored (at least for this
setting). 

If you want me to do some specific testing, please tell me.

This is mentioned at the top of /etc/vim/vimrc:


" Vim will load $VIMRUNTIME/defaults.vim if the user does not have a vimrc.
" This happens after /etc/vim/vimrc(.local) are loaded, so it will override
" any settings in these files.
"
" If you don't want that to happen, uncomment the below line to prevent
" defaults.vim from being loaded.
" let g:skip_defaults_vim = 1
"
" If you would rather _use_ default.vim's settings, but have the system or
" user vimrc override its settings, then uncomment the line below.
" source $VIMRUNTIME/defaults.vim
