Hi, I'm trying to compile the latest and greatest version of Vim
using AAP (since that seems to be the preferred way of doing it), and
am getting an odd error.  Here's the process that I'm following:

1. Create a `vim7` folder in my home dir.
    * mkdir ~/vim7
    * cd ~/vim7
2. I then run the command that's on the AAP web site:
    * aap -f http://www.a-a-p.org/vim/main.aap CVS=no

When I do that, I get the following error:

    Aap: Attempting download of "http://www.a-a-p.org/vim/main.aap";
    Aap: Downloaded "http://www.a-a-p.org/vim/main.aap"; to "main.aap"
    Aap: Created directory "patches"
    Aap: Internal Error
    Aap: Traceback (most recent call last):
        File "/usr/lib/aap/Process.py", line 1163, in Process
         exec script_string in recdict, recdict
        File "<string>", line 6, in ?
        File "/usr/lib/aap/Commands.py", line 3098, in aap_progsearch
         if " " in prog:
     TypeError: iterable argument required

    Aap: Aborted
    Aap: More info in the logfile: /home/tom/vim7/AAPDIR/log

...and here's what the log file says;

    extra:  Reading recipe "main.aap"
    info:   Created directory "patches"
    extra:  Finished reading recipe "main.aap"
    depend: Adding default dependency for "cleanmore"

    note:   :progsearch did not find any of ['cvs']
    error:  Internal Error
    error:  Traceback (most recent call last):

       File "/usr/lib/aap/Commands.py", line 3098, in aap_progsearch
        if " " in prog:
     TypeError: iterable argument required

    error:  Aborted

Has anyone else seen anything like this?  Do you think that this is
an AAP problem (and therefore not something I should post on this
list), or am I just doing it incorrectly?

Thanks in advance!
