Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: vim
When vi is set in insert mode by hitting <insert> or 'i', the status bar
on the bottom is not updated so it is not clear what the current status
is (insert mode or not). However, vi is indeed set to insert mode
because typing is possible.
When hitting <escape>, insert mode is left and commands like :q etc.
work as expected. Also in the case, there's no indication about the
status.
When vim is called instead of vi, everything workes as expected.
Problem is detected on Edgy (Dapper was working fine), but also present
in Feisty.
** Affects: vim (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
