1. Topic:
Updated vim 6.0 packages are available which fix some bugs and provide more
functionality.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386, ia64
3. Problem description:
This erratum updates the vim editor to version 6.0, patchlevel 149, fixing
several bugs and adding useful features, including
- Folding
- Vertical split windows
- Diff mode
- UTF8 support
- Multi-language support
- Flexible indenting

- Plugin support
- Improved documentation
For a detailed and more complete list of new features, improvements, and
fixed bugs just install the package, launch vim, and type:
:help version6
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains
the desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
