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"

hello, as a linux newbie i am a little confused about the "sudo rm /usr/bin/{view/rview}" command. typing it with the "{}"s does not work, file or directory not found. am i supposed to delete /usr/bin/view (which is a link)? i am probably missing something very obvious, but before i mess up my system i rather ask.
I think it would have been better to write in proper shell syntax, which would be "sudo rm /usr/bin/{view,rview}". The equivalent command, without the {} is "sudo rm /usr/bin/view /usr/bin/rview", by using the {} you let the shell do the expansion, and you save a few keystrokes. :-) /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
