Description Jesse Keating 2008-01-17 21:55:53 UTC
Summary says it all.  This annoying message pops up each and every time vim is
launched.  Please make it go away.

Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2008-01-18 13:57:28 UTC
which vim version ? Do you have a tags file in your current directory or does it
happen regardless of your current working directory ?
Is it reproducable with the latest vim version 7.1.233 ?

Comment 2 Jesse Keating 2008-01-18 15:16:21 UTC
It was happening with vim-enhanced-7.1.230-2.fc9.  Did not matter what directory
I was in.  I will try 233.

Yes it still reproduces in 233.  Is there perhaps a Requires missing?  This is a
fairly minimal install.

Comment 3 Karsten Hopp 2008-01-18 15:31:25 UTC
yes, that was the missing hint. I can reproduce it and I'm testing a fix now.

Comment 4 Karsten Hopp 2008-01-18 19:04:30 UTC
please try vim-enhanced-7.1.233-2.fc9
                                ^

Comment 5 Karsten Hopp 2008-01-21 11:11:52 UTC
looks like it works now

Comment 6 Sven Keidel 2009-04-05 13:36:44 UTC
The bug depends on the vim plugin "taglist". The plugin requirers the "Exuberant ctags" wich you can download at http://ctags.sf.net. After you have unziped it, you have to add the ctags location to the PATH variable, or set the Tlist_Ctags_Cmd variable in the .vimrc file (http://vim-taglist.sourceforge.net/manual.html#%27Tlist_Ctags_Cmd%27). 
e.g.
Windows:
let Tlist_Ctags_Cmd = 'd:\tools\ctags.exe'

Unix:
let Tlist_Ctags_Cmd = '/usr/local/bin/ctags'

Now restart Vim and the message shouldnt pop up again
