Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vim

Bug :

If i launch vim like this :

        $ vim

Then i could use completion like this, eg:

: vn[tab]       gives me                : vnew

BUT if i launch vim like this :

        $ vim -u .vimrcNN
or even with
        $ vim -u .vimrc

Then i could NOT use completion like this, eg:

: vn[tab]       gives me                : vn^I

It is very very very painful when you get the habit of Tab-completion
and when you want to use the -u option for specific coding with extra
VIMRC file.
