I was going to complain this didn't work then I realised my server (Latest Debian stable) only has Vim 7.2 and this requires 7.3. I'm not surprised to find my Mac, which I bought last year, has 7.3 but my server, which I installed last month, has older software.
Does anyone know why Debian seems to move so slowly? Should I change to a different distro?
- tgkokk 13y agoDebian does move slowly (that's why it is good for servers; you don't have to update often) but you probably need to update your server. On Debian Wheezy, I have got Vim 7.3.547.
- ancarda 13y ago>Debian Wheezy I believe due to a mistake it ended up on Debian 6 (Squeeze). Still, shouldn't 7.3 be available via apt-get?
- tgkokk 13y agoNope, this is what Packages.bz2 shows for Debian 6: Package: vim ... Version: 2:7.2.445+hg~cb94c42c0e1a-1 ... Filename: pool/main/v/vim/vim_7.2.445+hg~cb94c42c0e1a-1_i386.deb And the file is still available here: http://debian.ipacct.com/debian/pool/main/v/vim/vim_7.2.445+hg~cb94c42c0e1a-1_i386.deb http://debian.ipacct.com/debian/pool/main/v/vim/vim_7.2.445+... Edit: and no, it wouldn't be available to Debian Squeeze users, since it is served as an update to Wheezy users and not as a separate package (even if it was, it would have been made available only to Wheezy).
