The vimgdb from AUR has got so much BUGS to use it . . . It would just 2-3 plus line in the official vim pkgbuild according to this describtion:
http://clewn.sourceforge.net/install.html
Please take it, because for my development/work it's absolutely neccesary.
Please write exactly what you would like to be added and where.
Ok, you know vim. Vim has a debugging feature across VimGDB patch. I've linked the url above to see it . . .
So this patch allows to the user to use gdb inside vim. You can see a vimgdb pkgbuild in AUR, but it's not good! It crashes my vim absolutely.
My purpose is to add this lines to pkgbuild:
patch -d vim72 --backup -p0 < vimgdb/vim72.diff
And of course the tar.gz source to the source line in the PKGBUILD, i can't understand what you can't understand.
I really don't understand why can't you put this 2-3 line to the official vim package??!!
Is it so hard? It took me just about 5 minutes . . .
Cannot it be fixed?
Tobias Kieslich: You can't put 2-3 lines to the PKGBUILD. Can you attach the related lines of the Archlinux packaging guide lines ???
Roman Kyrylych: The fixed situation means the vim PKGBUILD + this 2-3 lines . . .

I can't understand your statement to this feature request, why the developer is an uncorrect to the users.
The 166 patches actually are from vim.org itself and they represent the ongoing STABLE development of the software. Yes, that is a little odd compared to the way other projects release their sources and it creates a huge overhead for me maintaining the package, but it's the vim way of doing it. Those patches actuall affect the internal version number of vim, displayed by vim --version.
The patches you are refrerring to are third party, aka different origin.
1) take the current vim pkgbuild, add the required patch and host it on AUR
2) convice vim developers to include it in official vim
