Description Dan Goodliffe 2016-08-11 19:39:44 UTC

If app/vim or app/gvim are built USE="-perl", startup fails with the following errors:

Error detected while processing /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/ctx-1.17.vim:
line   33:
E319: Sorry, the command is not available in this version: perl << ENDPERL
line   34:
E749: empty buffer
line   35:
E488: Trailing characters: # CTX main package
line   36:
E492: Not an editor command: package CTX;

<snip - the rest is all because the original problem>

Uninstalling app-vim/ctx or re-emerging [g]vim with USE="perl" are required to allow vim to function again.
