Hi,
I should have added that setting an environmental variable is an
effective workaround :
(in bash)
export VIMRUNTIME='/usr/share/vim/vim73'
I bring this up mainly as something that was working 'broke' with this
dist-upgrade, which I thought people would want to know.
I hope I'm not missing something obvious and wasting your time.
Regards,
Stephen

Hi Vim Maintainer(s),
I have just performed a dist-upgrade on aptosid and it seems to have
changed $VIMRUNTIME from /usr/share/vim/vim73 to /usr/bin/vim
So now with a config option "syntax on" I generate the error :
E484: Can't open file /usr/bin/vim/syntax/syntax.vim
I asked on IRC and was directed to contact the maintainer, I hope this
is the correct email to address this to, please forgive the intrusion if
not.
