I am using WLS and vam is correctly installed I have a few packages installed already (from apt): editexisting, justify, matchit, youcompleteme

and whereis vam => /usr/bin/vam

but if I try to configure my vim.rc script to use vam:

set nocompatible | filetype indent plugin on | syn on set runtimepath+='/usr/bin/vam' call vam#ActivateAddons(['scrooloose/syntastic'])

then i am getting Unknown function: vam#ActivateAddons

/usr/bin/vam is not a valid place for VAM, /usr/bin is for executable files and whatever you add to &runtimepath must be a directory. Also you have invalid :set syntax, you must not use single quotes there because what you have actually written is “add directory ./'/usr/bin/vam' to &runtimepath” where all quotes are part of the path.

Thank you, I am still getting exact same error, I also found this https://vi.stackexchange.com/questions/7249/using-vim-addon-manager now I wander if it is related

@StephaneKazmierczak If you installed VAM through apt-get then you did not get VAM from this repository. For some reason @MarcWeber has selected the same name, though I saw that vim-addon-manager only on debian and even there it is stagnating and not very popular.

thank you so much for this confirmation
