I have the following vim packages installed on Linux Mint Debian Edition: vim vim-common vim-tiny vim-runtime vim-doc
I had the above packages installed before, and after installing Vundle (it was functional via instructions on githubdotcom/gmarik/vundle) decided, to avoid plugin conflicts, to completely remove and reinstall all of the above vim packages/.vim folder, in order to fully utilize Vundle as a means to manage my plugins. In my file explorer, I can see that the folder created from git cloning ~/.vim and all inherited folders/files belong to root. This causes the following problems with Vundle: First of all when I executed :BundleSearch query: http://imgur.com/ZB2RnR7 To further diagnose my problem, I tried adding a bundle manually into my vimrc: Bundle 'scrooloose/nerdtree' Using the exact same vimrc setup in the Vundle github, it worked on the previous installation. Now when I attempt to :BundleInstall I get the following permission-based errors: [140112 13:48:10] [140112 13:48:10] Bundle scrooloose/nerdtree [140112 13:48:10] $ git clone --recursive 'https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree.git' '/home/ahqiao/.vim/bundle/nerdtree' [140112 13:48:10] > fatal: could not create work tree dir '/home/ahqiao/.vim/bundle/nerdtree'.: Permission denied\00 [140112 13:48:11] [140112 13:48:11] Helptags: [140112 13:48:11] :helptags /home/ahqiao/.vim/bundle/vundle/doc/ [140112 13:48:11] > Error running :helptags /home/ahqiao/.vim/bundle/vundle/doc/ [140112 13:48:11] Helptags: 1 bundles processed Furthermore, my vimrc also contains the standard two lines for plugins: filetype plugin on set nocp In the past, I have also had problems with :helptags not being able to access ~/.vim/doc because of permission so I have had to manually copy the helpfiles into a non-root folder and point to that with :helptags.. How can I overcome these root problems? Vundle is really essential for me to manage the amount of plugins I require to code and keep track of.
