Probably you have 'filetype indent on' or 'filetype plugin indent on' in your .vimrc, or when you upgraded the system, the system .vimrc includes this. Per-filetype indentation rules are very common (and quite useful to most people), and they will override things like indentexpr. If you don't like it you may need to turn it off. I would try to find your system .vimrc (see :version output) and double-check all the settings there to see if you like them. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
