Well those scripts are supposed to be installed in the user home directory, some scripts add functionalities that many users doesn't want (changing for example how vim shows functions and so on), so my idea is that the system admin install the plugins but each user activate the addons he/she wants to use. I was talking with a debian developer in the #vim channel and they use a similar method, but their vim addons packages comes with a registry of files the addon include, we don't need that registry because we have each package splittled from the rest. The idea of install under "vimfiles" directory is only to know that the recipe is a vim addon. If you want we could support the addons system wide, so each addon installed is loaded by vim (for all users) and the user needs to read how the addon works to disable it if he wants. Another solution could be install them system wide and including wich each addon a tool to disable it, but this seems more difficult, the script should modify a file under the user directory who run the tool sourcing the file or something similar. How should i create the vim addons recipes? Which method is prefered? Greets.
