I downloaded the source code for the latest VIM from github and followed the directions for building it from source. I am on Ubuntu Budgie 17.10. I compiled VIM with several features that I wanted, such as both Python and Python3, as well as Perl and several other interpreters. After finishing with setting up my vimrc, plugins and all that good stuff, I ran apt update && dist-upgrade on the terminal, and apt downloaded and installed a different version of VIM on my system. When I built vim I used the checkinstall method which allowed for easy removal later down the road if need be. Maybe this has something to do with it? My support for most of the interpreters that I built for is gone now. Why did apt take it upon itself to update VIM and override my custom built version?
