Bug#401000: vim: Vim not handling .gz files anymore

[Peter Eckersley]

Unfortunately I can't, unless apt keeps a log of this stuff that I'm not
aware of.

This system has been alive in various incarnations for many years (at least
five, I'd say) and has been apt-get upgraded quite a number of times along
the way.  I think my previous version of vim was 6.xish?  But it's possible
that the diversions were lying had somehow survived from much older
packages.
