Minor bug on Debian
dickontoo opened this issue · 4 comments
The README.md needs a slight update, to avoid a runtime issue on modern Debian systems: the package liblua-5.x-0-dbg needs to be installed or vim fails to load the plugin with the error:
gvim: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblua5.2.so.0: no version information available (required by gvim)
color_coded unavailable: you need to compile it (see README.md)
I have no idea why this is...
Interesting. I do not have that package installed on my debian testing system and have no issues with color_coded. Are you perhaps using a custom gvim version? Also, does this only happen with gvim or with the terminal version of vim as well?

which is what I got with an apt-get yesterday on stretch/sid. Happens on both vim and gvim.
Just did a fresh install of debian stretch and was unable to reproduce the issue.
Am I correct in assuming you installed vim-gtk to provide vim and gvim?
Still, I think this may be something worth noting in the FAQ/Troubleshooting section. Thanks for letting us know about this.
Handled. Thank you!
