May I suggest the following cosmetic changes? Title: Reorganization of Vim packages Body: The Vim suite of packages has been reorganized to better provide advanced features in the standard vim package, and to split the CLI and GUI versions; the new packages are: - vim-minimal: identical to the current vim package - vim: now includes all the features from gvim, but without GTK/X support - vim-python3: same as gvim-python3, but without GTK/X support - gvim: same as before - gvim-python3: same as before -- Gaetan

The description probably should be changed to "identical to the previous vim package" Other than that, I like all of your suggestions.

to avoid confusion, maybe you should add the vim-runtime is the same as before? - vim-runtime: untouched -- Ike

Body:

Sounds good to me. This is nice since those who have vim installed will simply get a "better" vim. Finally I can get rid of gvim! -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
I am going to paste the current version since it seems to be somewhat of a consensus: If there are no more bugs that show up related to this package, I will post a news item and move vim tomorrow.
