<Debian Vim maintainer hat> Please report problems you experience with Debian's vim packages to Debian (reportbug is your friendly bug reporting program). At the very least, peruse the bug list to see if someone has reported a similar problem. </Debian Vim maintainer hat> > I tried removing and reinstalling gvim as well, but the problem > persists.

The problem is most likely that you didn't accept the maintainer changes to the system-wide vimrc when you upgraded. Try purging[0] vim-common (and vim-gui-common if you have it) and reinstalling them. James [0] - A simple removal doesn't remove the configuration files for a package. Those are left behind until you purge the package (apt-get remove --purge foo, or dpkg --purge foo, or aptitude purge foo). If you've already removed a package, you'll want to use one of the latter two commands since 'apt-get remove --purge' won't purge already removed packages. -- GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
