vim-nix breaks backspace key #38

Closed nh2 closed 3 years ago

nh2 commented 3 years ago

Using this on NixOS 20.09 (commit `b94726217f7):

{
    # From https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Editor_Modes_for_Nix_Files#vim-nix
    (pkgs.vim_configurable.customize {
      name = "vim";
      vimrcConfig.packages.myplugins = with pkgs.vimPlugins; {
        start = [ vim-nix ]; # load plugin on startup
      };
    })
}

breaks the Backspace and delete keys in vim (they simply have no effect, even in new plain sessions opened with vim).

vim_configurable without plugin does not have that issue.

What's going on?

I see the same behaviour without vim-nix so whatever this is it looks like a nixpkgs issue.

@LnL7 can you clarify what exactly "without vim-nix" means here? Do you mean removing vim-nix from start = [ ], or using just vim_configurable without .customize?

Because I have tried the latter but not yet the former.
