In short, everything is a symlink to /bin/vim, but /bin/vim doesn't have execute permissions. Why/How can this be? Does anyone else have this utter strangeness?
It's executable here on 42.3. $ ll /usr/bin/vim /bin/vim /usr/bin/vi /bin/vi lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul 26 2017 /bin/vi -> vim -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2363952 Jul 2 2017 /bin/vim lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Jul 26 2017 /usr/bin/vi -> /bin/vim lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Jul 26 2017 /usr/bin/vim -> /bin/vim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
