LustyJuggler not working on upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04, always says "No other buffers" about lusty HOT 6 CLOSED

It's a bug in Vim. Check out this link:

https://groups.google.com/group/vim_dev/browse_thread/thread/7bf380f7ccd4af31?pli=1

It's something that I can put in a work around for, but that's difficult since I don't have access to a 32-bit machine. Happy to accept a patch, though. :-)

The bug on the list has been fixed by some official patch(es). Maybe you have to patch and compile your own Vim.

Thanks for the information. I thought I was taking crazy pills, when really it is just a Vim bug. lillydjwg, do you have any links to the patches?

from lusty.

Here they are:

ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.3/

The patches to fix this problem are around patch 100. You'd better just apply all the patches, though.

EDIT: bad idea, this will mess up versions of shared libraries.

You can avoid compiling vim by installing the version from Ubuntu 11.10: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/vim - it has all the required patches.

An easy but potentially risky way to do this is

sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list
:%s/natty/oneiric/g
:wq
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vim

and then switch the sources back to natty.

That fixed the issue for me.

I believe Ubuntu now packages a version of Vim with the correct patch.
