this is fixed in Debian's vim version: vim (1:7.0-164+2) unstable; urgency=medium
[ James Vega ] * debian/vim-variant.preinst: + Move diversion removal here from vim-variant.postinst. Manually remove /usr/bin/vim in order to be able to remove the diversion. Fixes upgrades from Sarge leaving behind stale binaries. (closes: #401000) + Remove the alternatives for ru.{UTF-8,KOI8-R} manpages so the alternatives system doesn't attempt to keep the links around after the upgrade. Fixes upgrades from Etch.
