Arch Linux

sorry, i don't have any link in vim-runtime

yeah sorry, this must be from an old package... but anyway, i updated vim runtime and los all my syntax indentation settings, etc.

how come? the configuration is in ~/.vimrc and vim-runtime has a backup entry for /etc/vimrc. I suggest to check your config and be sure that runtime path is set up correctly

I downgraded to vim-runtime 7.2 and everything works fine... I know it doesn't make much sense, any place I can start looking?

i've already told you what to check and now that you said that downgrading _only_ vim-runtime solves your issue, i believe you didn't fully update your system.

vim/gvim/vim-runtime should have the same version

with no syntax highlighting

local/vim-runtime 7.3.3-1
local/gvim 7.3.3-1

" All system-wide defaults are set in $VIMRUNTIME/archlinux.vim (usually just
" /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/archlinux.vim) and sourced by the call to :runtime
" you can find below. If you wish to change any of those settings, you should
" do it in this file (/etc/vimrc), since archlinux.vim will be overwritten
" everytime an upgrade of the vim packages is performed. It is recommended to
" make changes after sourcing archlinux.vim since it alters the value of the

" This line should not be removed as it ensures that various options are
" properly set to work with the Vim-related packages.

" If you prefer the old-style vim functionalty, add 'runtime! vimrc_example.vim'
" Or better yet, read /usr/share/vim/vim72/vimrc_example.vim or the vim manual
