[arch-general] Where should system-wide vim files go?

[Oon-Ee Ng]

I installed vim-peaksea from the AUR the other day and couldn't use
it, because it installed in /usr/share/vim/colors/peaksea.vim. This
seems a fairly standard directory, but its not in runtimepath on a
fresh install (AFAIK).

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).

So what's the 'correct' behaviour? The vim split package doesn't seem
to do any patches affecting runtimepath, so probably I assume
runtimepath is an upstream default. In that case, should AUR packages
correct their location?

Posting to arch-general because it overlaps and isn't solely an AUR issue.
