Luckily I stopped when urpmi complains about conflict between
vim and locales-*. Otherwise all my customized translations will
be burned in hell as well. Such changes ought to put into
real machine testing before releasing.
Attached a patch to check carefully whether $datadir/vim/lang
is a real directory before removing it.
Besides, I remembered somebody suggested to keep /bin/vi link
to /bin/vim-minimal forever, so that one can still use vi if
/usr is not mounted. Is it acceptable?
