Hmm, I'm unable to reproduce this in a clean chroot nor have I seen it in the upgrades I've been doing on my system to test the packages. In the chroot tests, I've installed vim & vim-tiny (which automatically pulls in vim-common and vim-runtime) and then upgrade to the experimental versions. Everything worked fine. I tried different ordering of packages on the command-line as well as simply performing an upgrade of all packages in case it was an issue with order of upgrades. Could you post the output of “dpkg-divert --list” and “ls -l /usr/share/vim/vim71/doc”? -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
