Description: vim-python3 is not compiled with X11 support,
as noted in the wiki as well:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Vim. The solution detailed in the wiki is to install the gvim
variant. However, this depends on gtk2, a pretty heavy
dependency - I wish to have an Arch setup that is
exclusively gtk3 to avoid unnecessary bloat. Firefox is
transitioning to gtk3, and apart from that and gvim-python3,
I am free of gtk2.
One can argue that this belongs to an AUR package. However, IMHO vim-python3, which anyway is not minimal due to python3 support, can also have X11 clipboard support without the GUI. Anyway, just requesting a resolution and/or hopefully a rationale for why things are the way they are currently. Additional info: * package version(s) 7.4.944-1. |
