Checked out some other vim colour-themes on the AUR, the majority seem to install to the same location. Some choose /usr/share/vim/vim** instead, but that breaks when vim updates. Perhaps /usr/share/vim/vimfiles makes more sense (only found one PKGBUILD using that so far).
I believe that now the correct behaviour is for things that are version specific to go in /usr/share/vim/vimXX and everything else to go in /usr/share/vim/vimfiles.
Some vim-ninja can probably correct me, though :-)
Pete.
PS. Yes, by this standard, many PKGBUILDS in the AUR are wrong, and need fixing.
IMNSHO there are *very* few vim extensions that should ever be installed centrally. I'd recommend every vim user to embrace GetLatestVimScripts[1] instead. For the other stuff (read "broken vim extensions") I created vim-scripts-mgr[2]. :-) /M [1]: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=642 [2]: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26318 -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus
