I do not install vim anywhere and everything works fine. In order to have it working without installing anywhere I set up an alias: alias VimBeta="VIMRUNTIME=$HOME/tmp/vim/vim/runtime $HOME/tmp/vim/vim/src/vim" Mercurial vim repository was cloned into $HOME/tmp/vim/vim and everything works fine, so do not listen these people.
