Hello, sudo ln -s /Applications/MacPorts/Vim/Vim.app/Contents/Resources/ vim/ /opt/local/Vim.app/Contents/Resources/vim should fix the problem. (this is a workaround, I'm working on a solution) On Feb 10, 2007, at 5:06 PM, Thomas Zander wrote:

Good day,

since the vim port has been bumped to patchlevel 192, the aqua variant seems to have problems: E484: Can't open file /opt/local/Vim.app/Contents/Resources/vim/syntax/syntax.vim

So it seems gvim looks for syntax highlighting definitions at the wrong place. Also the main menu does not have any entries except for the leftmost "vim". This happens under a recent OS X Tiger, Intel Mac.

Building vim without aqua support however works fine.

Has somebody else encountered this?

okay, sounds good. So it is not a problem of my particular installation. Thanks in advance, Riggs

the problem should no longer exist:

sorry, despite not upgrading but complete uninstall/install of the vim port (the _1 revision this time), it is still looking for the resources in the wrong place and I have to apply the symlink workaround manually. But it was a good idea to mention that the vim aqua port requires a complete deinstall / install procedure. When I crossed this in the first place it felt quite unexpected because the upgrading process usually works surprisingly fine with macports. Riggs
