greetings, Florian

Thank you, Florian, for your lists. I am no vim user and so I do not know what vim users would prefer: having one or two collections of themes (of which they use only few), or having many packages, all providing exactly one theme. I would say, packages with bundles of themes are better. I took a look at some of the packages and did not see a conflicts line against the bundles, so many are broken in that respect anyway. Thoughts? Regards Stefan

Technically, none of them conflict with the [extra] package because the official files are distributed across the vim72 and vimfiles dirs, whereas these place theirs directly to /usr/share/vim/foo/. To me, it's a little bit of an overkill to have a package for one file (excluding the license) when all of them are provided for by an official package, so I would delete these if you were to ask for opinions. But if most of them are under Laszlo, then he is (was?) an active pacman enthusiast and twice a TU applicant. So he might still be around to share his thoughts on this. -- GPG/PGP ID: B42DDCAD
