Description Ran Rutenberg 2022-10-09 14:53:18 UTC
When installing app-vim/vim-r-1.2.6 it outputs a message:

 * Messages for package app-vim/vim-r-1.2.6:

 * This plugin requires the vimcom R package to be installed,
 * see https: //github.com/jalvesaq/VimCom for instructions.

However, there is no vimcom R package in the R repository, and when looking at the suggested website there is a warning that the package is deprecated, should not be installed and not needed for using the vim-r plugin (which is actually nvim-r now).

I would suggest removing the message.

I'm attaching a new version of the ebuild without the unnecessary message.
