Running VIM 8 at RHEL

Latest response

The vim on RHEL 7.6 is 8 years old. Since that time, there were at least two major vim releases: 8.0 and 8.1.

When RH plan to upgrade vim? I somehow assumed that newly released 7.6 comes with upgrade.

Is there any other suggested method to use newer vim than get it from the GitHub and build it by my own?

Thank you,
Juraj
