Description Tejas Dinkar 2006-02-17 15:56:38 UTC
Description of problem:
There are many features which vim has, that are not enabled by default.

For example auto-indenting.

These are all working well in FC4's vim, if you copy 
/usr/share/vim/vim63/vimrc_example.vim to /etc/vimrc

Also, (this should be another bug,) in man vim, the location of the vimrc is
given as /usr/share/vim/vimrc, when it is located in /etc/vimrc

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.3

How reproducible:
Very :)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install fedora
  
Actual results:
A more complete vimrc should be enabled

Expected results:
Not so good vimrc is there, and users must manually copy the example vimrc to
get better configs

Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2006-07-20 09:03:41 UTC
I've checked the differences between vimrc_example and the installed vimrc.
There isn't that much difference, i.e. the autoindent setting was turned off on
purpose (it's commented out in /etc/vimrc) by one of the previous maintainers.
