From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: vim is compiled without libperl, so the perld functions silently fail. Please either build vim with perl (preferable) or have it fail/warn when perl commands are executed (ok). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vim-6.2.121 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try using :perld s/foo/bar/ 2. Watch it fail 3. Sigh Actual Results: It silently failed to do anything Expected Results: It should've replaced foo with bar all throughout the document Additional info:
This is fixed in rawhide (6.2.154-3 or later)
So I'd guess it would stay that way for FC2 too...
