There's not really enough detail in this bug report yet to tell whether this is the same issue, but it sounds like it is. Here's what I did to get the package working on my installation:
remove these 3 lines: if exists("did_load_filetypes") finish endif from /usr/share/vim/addons/ftdetect/vo_base.vim I noticed that /usr/share/vim/vim63/filetype.vim sets this variable to prevent itself from being loaded twice, and that it is set before including addons/ftdetect/*.vim . So by the time vo_base.vim gets included, that variable is already set, and the default script just exits. Removing this check makes vimoutliner come to life when editing *.otl. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one." --President Thomas Jefferson
