Description t35t0r 2006-05-07 17:00:38 UTC
I don't know if this is invalid or not, but it looks like vim 7.0 final source has been released. On ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unix/

vim-7.0.tar.bz2  	6422 KB  	05/07/06  	14:17:00


i'm going to do a download and manual build and version check to make sure.
Comment 1 t35t0r 2006-05-07 17:06:12 UTC
yes just verified on http://www.vim.org/download.php like two minutes ago (it wasn't there 10 minutes ago):

"Vim 7.0 is the latest stable version. If you have a problem with it (e.g., when it's too big), you could try version 6.4 or 5.8 instead."

Comment 2 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2006-05-07 17:15:52 UTC
thank you for your input, please keep in mind that we need some time to check the ebuilds in even if they are ready, and that means that at least one developer per arch tested it already and didn't find any issue about it.

Usually we get the pre-release in order to get the shortest time possible between source availability and ebuild availability.

Obviously sometimes the interested developers may be busy because of other tasks.

please wait about a week before fill this kind of bug or please provide at least some informations like: your emerge info and if the simple bump in the ebuild would pass the test check or the changes required in the current ebuild.

Thank you

last time i checked I wasn't a dev and hadn't gone through the leet gentoo developer training. go diff yourself.

May I suggest man diff? Also see

Really, sticking in a huge vim.eclass instead of a diff makes it completely impossible to review the changes online without downloading and doing a diff yourself first. :/

Doing that to vim.eclass will break all the other vim versions, and it will give you a broken vim7 install.

Fortunately I stuck it in my overlay /root/ebuilds/eclass and didn't replace the original in /usr/portage/eclass. If I use the older version official ebuilds doesn't it use the eclass from /usr/portage/eclass ? In any case, since you're here now it'll be done properly :) . Thanks.
