Is this one package proposal or two? I guess one, since otherwise there
would be no differences among vim-full and vim-gnome, right? So I would
go for vim-nox, which makes clear the purpose of the variant directly
from the package name.

Thanks for your investigations, I agree with this split idea.

Cheers.
