Public bug reported:
I used to rely on the clientserver features of vim. But after upgrading
to 16.04, it seems this is not supported anymore:
```
$ vim --version
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.4 (2013 Aug 10, compiled Apr 08 2016 11:38:28)
Included patches: 1-1689
Modified by pkg-vim-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Compiled by pkg-vim-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Huge version without GUI. Features included (+) or not (-):
+acl +farsi +mouse_netterm +tag_binary
+arabic +file_in_path +mouse_sgr +tag_old_static
+autocmd +find_in_path -mouse_sysmouse -tag_any_white
-balloon_eval +float +mouse_urxvt +tcl
-browse +folding +mouse_xterm +terminfo
++builtin_terms -footer +multi_byte +termresponse
+byte_offset +fork() +multi_lang +textobjects
+channel +gettext -mzscheme +timers
+cindent -hangul_input +netbeans_intg +title
-clientserver +iconv +packages -toolbar
...
```
Is it deliberately not included any more or was it just lost as part of
spring cleaning? I see that other missing features after upgrading to
16.04 are also causing trouble for others as well (especially missing
python3 support).
Btw, the above output is from vim-nox, as I need the python3 support
which is included in -nox, but clientserver is missing from both vim and
vim-nox.
