I also noticed this by launching "view /var/log/installer/syslog" on a freshly installed Ubuntu desktop system.

If you just run it as vi $ vi this message does not appear as vim.tiny runs in compatibility mode. I found mention of this issue in: https://github.com/grml/grml-etc-core/issues/99 The defaults.vim file is provided by the package vim-runtime. I'm unsure what the issue is, if something needs to be in /etc/vim/vimrc.tiny or a /etc/vim/vimrc needs to be provided dpkg claims vimrc is in vim-common, but no file is installed for me from that package, or if vim-runtime needs to be a required package for vim-tiny $ dpkg -S /etc/vim/vimrc vim-common: /etc/vim/vimrc $ ls -al /etc/vim/vimrc ls: cannot access '/etc/vim/vimrc': No such file or directory I discovered this because my .selected-editor was vim.tiny after running crontab -e $ crontab -e Select an editor. To change later, run 'select-editor'. 1. /bin/nano <---- easiest 2. /usr/bin/vim.tiny 3. /bin/ed ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 Package: vim-tiny 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.15.0-1005.5-raspi 5.15.30 Uname: Linux 5.15.0-1005-raspi aarch64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu81 Architecture: arm64 CasperMD5CheckResult: unknown Date: Wed Apr 13 11:56:35 2022 ImageMediaBuild: 20201022 ProcEnviron: TERM=screen PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: vim UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to jammy on 2022-04-09 (4 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/1968912/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
