$ ./get-completions | ./completion-qa-check.py  | grep vim
rvim: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vim)
view: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vim)
evim: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vim)
ex: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vim)
rview: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vim)
gview: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/gvim)
rgview: missing completion symlink for command (declared in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/gvim)

In other words, vim should install symlinks like

  $completionsdir/rvim -> vim

etc. so that the autoloader could find the completions for every command.

The package also provides completions for 'ex' and 'view' commands that are controlled by eselect-vi. We may want to control completion symlinks there as well.
