           Summary: golang-vim package removed? (go syntax highlighting in
                    vim)
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 22
         Component: golang
          Severity: low

Description of problem:
In Fedora 21 the package 'golang-vim' was available:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=golang-vim

How reproducible: `dnf search golang | grep vi` returns no results.

Additional info: If the package is orphaned or something like that then I would
like to know. Then I will package and maintain it.

--- Comment #1 from Jan Chaloupka <jchaloup(a)redhat.com&gt; ---
> From [1]: 
"The standard repository's top-level misc directory used to contain Go support
for editors and IDEs: plugins, initialization scripts and so on. Maintaining
these was becoming time-consuming and needed external help because many of the
editors listed were not used by members of the core team. It also required us
to make decisions about which plugin was best for a given editor, even for
editors we do not use.

The Go community at large is much better suited to managing this information.
In Go 1.4, therefore, this support has been removed from the repository.
Instead, there is a curated, informative list of what's available on a wiki
page [2]."

As [2] contains a link to vim-go [3]. It could be packaged if not already.
