Bug 100122 – app-vim/gentoo-syntax: syntax file for /etc/portage/package.use doesn't highlight USE flags beginning with a number

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Laércio Benedito de Sousa Júnior 2005-07-24 08:38:48 UTC]

The syntax file for /etc/portage/package.use in package app-vim/gentoo-syntax
doesn't highlight the USE flags begin with a number.

This can be easily fixed by modifying the following lines in file
/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/syntax/gentoo-package-use.vim:

line 29: (CURRENT) syn match  GentooPackageUseUse contained
/[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9\-_]*/
         (FIXED)   syn match  GentooPackageUseUse contained
/[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\-_]*/

line 31: (CURRENT) syn match  GentooPackageUseUnuse contained
/-[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9\-_]*/
         (FIXED)   syn match  GentooPackageUseUnuse contained
/-[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\-_]*/


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable syntax highlighting and syntax plugins in VIM
2. With app-vim/gentoo-syntax installed, open file /etc/portage/package.use in VIM
3.

Actual Results:  
The USE flags beginning with a number, and all other following that, don't
appear highlighted.

Expected Results:  
The USE flags beginning with a number must appear correctly highlighted.
