Come on guys, it's bad enough that vi(m) is not on the stages, but now I can't copy it from the livecd either! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from gentoo-2004.0-x86-20040128.iso 2. enter vi /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf Actual Results: Nothing happened, it just sat there, saying -bash: vi: command not found
The default editor is still nano - considering vi as alternative, but it will increase stages a lot because of its dependencies.
vi works when copied from the livecd to the install stage, so the dependencies are met. If not, unzipped libtermcap.so is a mere 15k. bzip2 -9 brings vi down to 80kb. That's a minute difference. The Gentoo 1.4 livecd has vi. Then why not the 2004.0 livecd? Fortunately, your "still" yields hope that the evil nano editor may finally soon be replaced by a real editor;-)
