I just checked, and it appears that I did the upload. And indeed, more
doesn't work properly for me either :-( (I always use less, so I didn't
notice earlier).
On the fdisk front: all I did was remove the include of partition.h, as
it conflicts with the existing partition.h on the system. However, I got
mail back from the maintainer that he had added the include on
recommendation from Chris (Chris? What's going on there?) Anyway, fdisk
still at least shows me the partitions properly, so I gues it's ok.
So, that will fix more. How about the reported vi problems? It's not a
problem with vim, I believe, as I haven't noticed anything wrong. So
which vi is it...
