Everyone,

I have just installed two machines with F18x64, and am having a problem with vim. When I try to execute the software I get

root@CoBl ~]# vim Vim: Caught deadly signal SEGV Vim: Finished. Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Have any of you developed a work around for this yet?

Thanks,

Greg Ennis

[egreshko@f18x ~]$ rpm -q vim-enhanced vim-enhanced-7.3.712-1.fc18.x86_64

Running just fine here. How did you install it?

I installed the gnome desktop, but could not figure out how to add kde and vim until after the installation. I did a yum install vim* in order to get everything. I was not sure on the basis of "yum search vim" which ones were important and which were not important. How did you install it? Greg

How did you install it?

I simply did....

yum install vim-enhanced

After doing....

yum whatprovides *bin/vim

Interesting..... I was able to reproduce your problem by doing....

yum install vim-enhanced yum install vimpal yum install vim-clustershell vim-command-t vim-halibut vim-nerdtree

It seems that, maybe under certain conditions, that installing vim-command-t causes the problem.

I have 2 test systems. On both I have....

vim-X11.x86_64 2:7.3.712-1.fc18 @fedora vim-clustershell.noarch 1.6-2.fc18 @fedora vim-command-t.x86_64 1.4-1.fc18 @fedora vim-common.x86_64 2:7.3.712-1.fc18 @fedora vim-enhanced.x86_64 2:7.3.712-1.fc18 @fedora vim-filesystem.x86_64 2:7.3.712-1.fc18 @fedora vim-halibut.noarch 1.0-6.20120803svn9601.fc18 @fedora vim-minimal.x86_64 2:7.3.712-1.fc18 @anaconda vim-nerdtree.noarch 4.2.0-7.fc18 @fedora vim-perl-support.noarch 5.0.1-2.fc18 @fedora vimpal.x86_64 1.2.0-1.fc18 @updates

Installed.

One gets an error installing vim-command-t the other doesn't.

Running Transaction Installing : vim-command-t-1.4-1.fc18.x86_64 1/1 /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.2JBWKG: line 1: 2199 Segmentation fault (core dumped) vim -c ":helptags /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/doc" -c :q &>/dev/null warning: %post(vim-command-t-1.4-1.fc18.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 139 Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package vim-command-t-1.4-1.fc18.x86_64 Verifying : vim-command-t-1.4-1.fc18.x86_64 1/1

The one getting the error reproduces the issue.

Curious.....

OK...... I figured it out....

One system is hitting this bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=858135

"vim-command-t should require ruby"
