From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i586) The recent security update of VIM breaks the ability to use external functions like "fmt" to format text. The program complains "/tmp/vouDuYYB: File exists"; the specific tmp filename is different each time, of course. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run vim 2. Enter some text 3. Try formatting it with something like !}fmt Actual Results: The "File exists" error is given and the text piped out to the fmt command is lost. Expected Results: The text should have been piped through fmt (and thus formatted) and then re-inserted in place of the text that was removed.
Further experimentation shows that the problem only crops up if the (t)csh "noclobber" is set. Before "set noclobber", the pipe through fmt works fine. Afterwards, the /tmp file error comes up.
This is fixed in the current version.
