Archaic, Apr 5, 12:00 -0600:
If symlinking vim to vi (which tends to suggest vi isn't installed), the
vim manpage should also be symlinked. If there are no objections, I'll
either do this or ticket it for later.
No need for ticketing, it's already been. Twice, at least:

Also,

ISTR some problems with symlinking man pages, the most obvious being that
for i in /usr/share/man/*/*; do gzip $i; done
will suddenly break things. There might be others.
echo '.so man1/vim.1' > /usr/share/man/man1/vi.1
would work around this.
