LustyJuggler not working on upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04, always says "No other buffers" #35

I have a perplexing bug. Since upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal on one machine, my work desktop, LustyJuggler always complains "No other buffers" when I enter <LEADER>lj, even when I am editing multiple files, and :buffers lists multiple open buffers. I do not experience this bug on my laptop.

The only ideas I have are that LustyJuggler never starts running (@running is always false) or that $lj_buffer_stack never gets any new elements pushed on to it, even when opening new files.

I don't understand why this no longer works on my desktop but does on my laptop. The desktop is 32-bit Ubuntu while the laptop is 64-bit but I don't think that's relevant. They both claim to have Ruby-enabled Vim. Running :echo eval(has("ruby")) returns 1. I don't know how to get LustyJuggler to be more verbose (e.g., dump the contents of $lj_buffer_stack). If you have any insight, I'd love the help. It's very annoying to lose one of my favorite plugins.

I have also tried removing my $HOME/.vim and $HOME/.vimrc files and adding the plugin fresh. Still the same issue.

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

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?

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.
