Package: vim
Version: 2:7.3.429-2ubuntu2.1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

please consider increasing the STL_MAX_ITEM constant in src/vim.h.

This is used to limit the number of maximum %-items in the 'statusline'
setting.

When using a plugin like Powerline [1], you are likely to hit E541 ("too much
items specified").

While this is certainly an issue to be raised upstream (as well), Debian and
its derivatives users might benefit from a patch for this.

The default is 80, which is the amount of used by the default theme in
Powerline already (see [2]).

I suggest increasing it to something like 200 or 256.


Thanks,
Daniel.
