Interesting: I ran strace -f -o /tmp/vim_trace , and got this:
grep "open.*rc\>" /tmp/vim_trace
/tmp/vim_trace:47680 open("/etc/virc", O_RDONLY) = 3
/tmp/vim_trace:47680 open("/root/.vimrc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
/tmp/vim_trace:47680 open("/root/_vimrc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
/tmp/vim_trace:47680 open("/root/.exrc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
As virc is the only open which succeeds, it must be the culprit. Here's
what it looks like:
ls -l /etc/virc
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1962 Apr 19 2010 /etc/virc
<I did paste it here>
I'm too damn lazy to work out which bit is doing it - I think I'll just
remove it.
UPDATE: It's not that! renamed the file, and now:
grep "open.*rc\>" /tmp/vim_trace.48290
48545 open("/etc/virc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
48545 open("/root/7ticks/.vimrc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
48545 open("/root/7ticks/_vimrc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
(The only other opens are for library files)
This is odd (and interesting).
