#44708: vim 7.4.258 change in operation -------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: barry.j.mcinnes@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Keywords: vim | Port: vim 7.4.258 _0+huge+python27 -------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Since the last Macports update various users have complained about operational changes in vi/vim. 1. the arrow keys and insert mode stopped working, we had to do the following Vim / Vi arrow keys making A,C, B etc characters instead of moving around in insert (‘i’) mode ? :set nocompatible 2. viminfo seems to have stopped working, for remembering a search string across vi sessions We have no workaround other than /usr/bin/vi. All the above works fine in the Mac version in /usr/bin/vim -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44708> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

For `/usr/bin/vim`, this is solved by the existence of `/usr/share/vim/vimrc`. Creating an empty `~/.vimrc` will solve this as a workaround and I guess most users have a ~/.vimrc anyway. This ticket could be resolved at the same time with #37727 by adding a default `/opt/local/share/vim/vimrc`. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44708#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
