sltam@beech:~$ head -1 .vimrc
syntax on
sltam@beech:~$ vim
Error detected while processing /home/sltam/.vimrc:

"dpkg -L vim" shows that syntax.vim is in /usr/share/

Indeed several other things fail to work, as vim 6.4-001+2ubuntu2 still thinks vim/vim63' . This is because it still thinks its
that $VIMRUNTIME is '/usr/share/
version is 6.3.78.
You can set $VIMRUNTIME in your shell to work around this.
