Package: vim
Version: 1:6.4-006+2
*** Please type your report below this line ***
After typing in vim ":syntax on" there is a information that
the programm can't open /usr/share/vim/vim64/syntax. Actually
there's no syntax highlighting. I've tried to remove the programm
and install it again, nothing has changed. I have a line syntax on
in my .vimrc file.

This is because the /etc/vim/vimrc that was on your system wasn't the
same as what was installed by Vim. So, you were prompted about what to
do with the differences between your file and the new one the package
was installing. You chose to keep your version which is lacking some
requisite changes in the system-wide vimrc from the newer package.
The easiest way to solve this problem would be to merge whatever changes
are in your /etc/vim/vimrc with the new vimrc (which should exist as
either /etc/vim/vimrc.dpkg-new or /etc/vim/vimrc.dpkg-dist) making sure
that you keep the line from the newer vimrc which sets the runtime
option.
Since this has been reported so many times (#340254, #347704, #334200,
#338937) I'll add a NEWS entry specifying that users need to either
merge the new vimrc file with theirs or let the new vimrc override their
current one.
