Bug#761800: /usr/share/vim/vim74/ftplugin/perl.vim:41 isfname erroneously set to include ":"

Package: vim-runtime
Version: 2:7.4.430-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/share/vim/vim74/ftplugin/perl.vim

>From the mentioned file:

    " The following line changes a global variable but is necessary to make
    " gf and similar commands work.  The change to iskeyword was incorrect.
    " Thanks to Andrew Pimlott for pointing out the problem. If this causes a
    " problem for you, add an after/ftplugin/perl.vim file that contains
    "       set isfname-=:
    set isfname+=:

This is exactly wrong; by including ":" commands like "gF" (goto file, 
including a specific line) *don't* work anymore, because the common
delimiter ":" is no longer seen as such.

While it's technically correct that many systems accept ":" in filenames, 
I guess that it's much more common to provide a line number after the path.

Please remove ":" from isfname again.


Thank you!
