The upstream development is stalled. Personally I lack both time and skills to continue that project.
I'm leaving the package in place for the time being, just in case someone wants to use it as a basis for looking into the code, the upstream development is re-started or some such.

Hi, this could replace 'qvim' since qvim has been merged into this.

Having issues with libncurses.5.so currently on libncurses.6.so /usr/bin/qvim: error while loading shared libraries: libncursesw.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This no longer builds. The pkgver() fails. git describe --tags | perl -ne 'print $2 if /^(package-)([0-9]{8})$/; exit 0 if $2; exit 1' fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.

.INSTALL is invoking gtk-update-icon-cache but the corresponding package isn't stated by variable depends. This will probably come into effect on a minority of systems only as the package is installed more often than not but nevertheless fixing wouldn't hurt, IMHO. On a side note I wonder whether it wouldn't make sense to rename this package to vim-qt to reflect the upstream identification. I'm aware a package named like this was providing script http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=609 in AUR <4. But the last commit was more than twelve years ago. Aside from this I for one think it would be much better anyway if scripts got summarized similarly as its done with translations, e. g. vim-script-foo.

This is the latest stable version (see https://bitbucket.org/equalsraf/vim-qt/wiki/Packaging) whilst vim-qt-git is the most recent commit. Incidentally these currently coincide, although this hasn't always been the case.

There already is https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vim-qt-git/ - what's the difference? Maybe you can suggest adding e.g. lua support to vim-qt-git.
