Details

The following symlink appears to be missing:

/usr/share/man/man1/rvi.1.gz -> vi.1.gz

This breaks the following symlink from vim:
/usr/share/man/man1/rvim.1.gz -> rvi.1.gz

And appears to be inconsistant with all of the other rvi man pages such as
/usr/share/man/it/man1/rvi.1.gz -> vi.1.gz

vi 7.2.65-1
vim 7.2.65-1.1
This task depends upon

It works here
ls -al /usr/share/man/man1/rvi.1.gz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2008-12-08 04:40 /usr/share/man/man1/rvi.1.gz -> vi.1.gz
Are you on x86_64?

I recently had another person missing the xxd symlink. We should keep an eye on symlink issues in vi but my money is on screwed up installations.

There will be a new vi/vim/gvim layout that obsoletes this bug.
