Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: vim-common
Introduced in version 2:7.2.330-1ubuntu3 in 10.04 Lucid Lynx.
The file /etc/vim/vimrc from the package vim-common has un-commented the
line "syntax on", turning on vim's syntax highlighting. This causes
filetype detection to be enabled, which loads all ftdetect scripts from
the runtimepath. This change is harmful to users of the pathogen.vim
script, which edits the runtimepath. All the ftdetect scripts that
would have been found by doing "syntax on" or "filetype on" after using
pathogen are not found by the call to "syntax on" that happends before
using pathogen. This causes filetypes introduced in the bundles
installed using pathogen to not get detected.
** Affects: vim (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
