reassign 432519 ocaml-tools
retitle 432519 omlet does not respect the vim policy
thanks

I had a look at this bug report and found the issue.

We have two of them:
1) omlet is installed or not in a system-wide manner depending on an
   answer to a debconf template
2) omlet (if installed system-wide) ships its file under
   /usr/share/vim/addons/

Starting from the latest vim /usr/share/vim/addons/ is no longer in the
vim runtimepath. This is *intended* as addons should be registered to
the vim addons registry and the user should be able to decide how to
install addons using the "vim-addons" tool.

All this is documented in the Debian Vim Policy [1]. Implement it is
pretty easy, you can look at example packages like vim-latexsuite,
vim-scripts, or vim-syntax-gtk.

Cheers.
