Thank you for your report, but this is actually the intended behaviour
of the vi command. When invoking vim-tiny, the variant of vim installed
by default, using the vi command, it reads /etc/vim/vimrc.tiny, which
sets the compatible mode, so that vi acts like the original vi. The
broken arrow keys are part of that compatibility. In reality, the bug is
that in Dapper, the arrow keys aren't incorrectly mapped when running
vi.
To run vim, instead of vi, use the vim command, which reads
/etc/vim/vimrc.
** Changed in: vim (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Rejected
