I haven't yet read the other posts in this thread and I have to go to 
town before the shops close. However, the above invokes one or more 
"debian.vim" script(s) which could be at one of the following locations:

~/.vim/debian.vim
$VIM/vimfiles/debian.vim
$VIMRUNTIME/debian.vim
$VIM/vimfiles/after/debian.vim
~/.vim/after/debian.vim

Any existing scripts with one of the above five pathfilenames will be 
sourced, in the order given. If I were you, I'd check if they exist and 
what they contain (from the misbehaving "debian" version of Vim -- you 
can give the names at the command-line; put them between single quotes 
to avoid environment-variable expansion by the shell).


Best regards,
Tony.

        If you're like most homeowners, you're afraid that many repairs
around your home are too difficult to tackle.  So, when your furnace
explodes, you call in a so-called professional to fix it.  The
"professional" arrives in a truck with lettering on the sides and
deposits a large quantity of tools and two assistants who spend the
better part of the week in your basement whacking objects at random
with heavy wrenches, after which the "professional" returns and gives
you a bill for slightly more money than it would cost you to run a
successful campaign for the U.S. Senate.
        And that's why you've decided to start doing things yourself.
You figure, "If those guys can fix my furnace, then so can I.  How
difficult can it be?"
        Very difficult.  In fact, most home projects are impossible,
which is why you should do them yourself.  There is no point in paying
other people to screw things up when you can easily screw them up
yourself for far less money.  This article can help you.
