I just tried merging vim on my ultra1, no problems at all. [ vim-core-6.1-r4 and vim-6.1-r19 ] However, I already merged vim some time ago on my x86 machine so I already had a vim-6.1-lang.tar.gz in distfiles (which I share via NFS amongst all my machines) if you run `emerge -f vim` does it attempt to download it? (to test, I renamed my vim-6.1-lang.tar.gz and ran `emerge -f vim` on my other sparc (has no vim) and it went and fetched ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/extra/vim-6.1-lang.tar.gz to distfiles just fine.) All I can suggest at this stage it to `emerge sync` and try again. Let us know how you progress.
Did some playing around and apparently if you have -nls in your USE line in /etc/make.conf it will keep vim-6.1-lang.tar.gz from being downloaded. The ebuild and eclass are setup to use nls as optional until the actual unpack stage, where it doesn't appear to be so optional. Adding rphillips@gentoo.org to the CC field as he authored the eclass.
Added jhhudso@gentoo.org as he's a vim guru as well.
Jared: Can you take a look at this?
I tried emerge -f vim per your suggestion. Any thing else that I should do? ultra root # emerge -f vim Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 2) app-editors/vim-core-6.1-r4 to / >>> emerge (2 of 2) app-editors/vim-6.1-r19 to /
Created attachment 9240 [details, diff] proposed patch to fix this bug here's a simple patch to vim.eclass that fixes this problem: it will only try to extract vim-${version}-lang.tgz if nls is in USE flags
I added use nls && unpack ${LANG} to vim.eclass which works for both nls or -nls.
Emerged vim fine. Thanks!
