Public bug reported: Binary package hint: vim
When vi is set in insert mode by hitting <insert> or 'i', the status bar on the bottom is not updated so it is not clear what the current status is (insert mode or not). However, vi is indeed set to insert mode because typing is possible. When hitting <escape>, insert mode is left and commands like :q etc. work as expected. Also in the case, there's no indication about the status. When vim is called instead of vi, everything workes as expected. Problem is detected on Edgy (Dapper was working fine), but also present in Feisty. ** Affects: vim (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- vi does not show insert status https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118817 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
