Hi,
Finally, the new vi* packages are up. There will be a little migration
pain. For optimal results, I recommend to "sudo rm /usr/bin/{view/rview}"
before you run "sudo pacman -Syu"
Any ideas?

dmcgee@galway ~
$ vim .vimrc
Error detected while processing /home/dmcgee/.vimrc:
line   64:
E185: Cannot find color scheme inkpot
Press ENTER or type command to continue

dmcgee@galway ~
$ locate inkpot
/usr/share/vim/colors/inkpot.vim

For reference, here is some of my .vimrc:

" GUI/NONGUI SETTINGS "
if has("gui_running")
	if has("gui_gtk2")
		set guifont=DejaVu\ Sans\ Mono\ 12
	endif
	colorscheme desert
	set columns=80 lines=40
else
	colorscheme inkpot
endif

And a quick guess, it looks like the new vim package puts its colors here:
/usr/share/vim/vim72/colors/

Any reason the old /usr/share/vim/ shouldn't be on the default runtimepath?
