I am posting this to two lists because Vim is common to both. Of course, discussion and opinions, if any, could be different in each one.
While some softwares are rushing new versions even weekly, others stick to a "main" one and leave the minor versions/corrections in their repositories to be checked out with git or other softwares, and this is the case of Vim and MPlayer. I have noticed that most distributions are changing to upgrade these more often, perhaps monthly. Some examples with Vim: *buntu 7.3.429 ArchLinux 7.3.515 Fedora 7.3.515 Gentoo 7.3.515 Mageia 7.3.444 Mandriva devel 7.3.486 openSUSE Factory 7.3.456 Sometimes, they call it version 7.3 "correction-xxx". MPlayer has already changed. What do you think about Vim in LFS and/or BLFS, with a monthly source in Anduin? -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
