 I had the same problem, the only solution I found was to add the
 vimrc for user ~.vimrc and at least set one thing. I only set the
 colorscheme and now works fine, the problem is that you should set
 it for all your users, in my case was my personal user and root.

 I've noticed that it's been behaving strangely but I cannot figure
 out
 the cause. Last time I noticed something odd was when I commented
 out something in package.mask (with #) and saved it. Portage
 complained it
 was invalid and when I opened it again the '#' changed to 'g'.

 I've removed and reinstalled vim packages, no luck.

 Has anyone seen this?

You are right, this works. I wonder why? I'll look around for a bug report.

I've just test again, and I tried with some other options and only
works with colorscheme. I don't know why.

I tried this, with "set nowrap" in a .vimrc, and it made no difference.
What I find baffling is that out of six machines only one is doing this!

Yes, that started up correctly, for all users on the affected machine. I
have several systems at home and only one machine is affected this way.

I searched for vimrc on my system and the only result is /etc/vim/vimrc.
I renamed this file to something else, and it made no difference.

I also copied /etc/vimrc from a machine that doesn't exhibit this
behaviour and it also made no difference.

The .viminfo on the box shows:



# hlsearch on (H) or off (h):
~h
# Last Search Pattern:
~MSLe0~/

# Command Line History (newest to oldest):
:q
|2,0,1474647273,,"q"
://00
|2,0,1474569768,,"//00"

# Search String History (newest to oldest):
? 
|2,1,1474569768,,""



However, I did not type any of those commands nor did I search for them.

The only additional package I installed was the english dictionary, I
removed that and no difference.

It is showing this behaviour for versions 7.4.769 and 8.0.0005.

Could you try
vim -u NONE
to see if there is an issue with your config or one of your plugins?

Hi,

I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't try an update myself yet. Maybe the
cause of your issue is a different one then.

I think the cause of this effect is in the area of the terminal handling
and termcap information within vim. You may try experimenting with
different terminal emulators and TERM variable values (for example you
can test whether the bug still triggers with 'export TERM=dump' set).
Maybe you can find a workaround this way. Or gather enough information
for a bug report.

Best regards

Hmm, I've just upgraded to vim v8 and it is still doing it. I'm quite
confused.

I've had a similar issues for the past months with my vim. It was
related to my using the "urxvt" terminal and its TERM variable being set
to "rxvt-unicode".

In my case the effect didn't always show up but only under certain
conditions. I remember having seen a bug report for vim back then but
can't seem to find it right now. There are similar, older bug reports,
however, like this one:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=199362

I also remember there was a bugfix to vim back then to fix the issue.
But the version containing the bugfix was not yet stable in portage and
so I've lived with the occasional bug until now. I'm currently using
vim-7.4.769 and I think the bugfix was contained just a few micro
versions later if I'm not mistaken.

Hope this helps you somewhat.

Best regards

Matthias
