Hi, I would like to submit a request for an additional use flag for VIM. I would like the flag to be "vimgdb" and add support for vimgdb to vim when building it. vimgdb is a source code patch for vim and can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=111038&package_id=120238 Either x86 or ~x86 would be great. Thank you! George
It isn't exactly clear what this patch does from its webpage. Does it just add some commands and syntax highlighting to vim for running gdb? What does it do that couldn't be done simply with some .vim scripts? Would any of the scripts found at: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script_search_results.php?keywords=gdb&script_type=&order_by=rating&direction=descending&search=search do the same thing? I'd be much more comfortable with adding an ebuild for one of those to the tree than with adding a patch to the core vim executable. What do the other vim herd folks think?
Okay, I'm closing this bug, since I don't really see the need for this to be in portage, and the package itself seems rather immature (first release only a few weeks ago), and not very useful to most people (no one else seems to have voiced any interest in it).
Here is another vote for getting it added as an option. It may seem immature but it works and is rock solid. Every one where I work uses it.

Here's a better link with more information. http://clewn.sourceforge.net/ I would also like to have access to this from portage.
Created attachment 130388 [details] vimgdb_ebuilds.tar.bz2 Here's a set of ebuilds I procured from gentleman named Ali Polatel and modified to work with the latest vim and vimGdb. You can get his original files by executing "svn co svn://svn.nonlogic.org/hawking/hawking-overlay".

THX for let me know. FYI, see "1.b. Common Ebuild Submission Mistakes" [1] "Please please please do not attach ebuilds as tarballs. Attach patches separately as well so we can easily examine them." ----- [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/hb-guide-common-mistakes.xml
