But I would suggest that a better way might be to simply configure vim for your preferences using ~/.vimrc, and by creating your own custom option files that will not be clobbered by a package update (ex: /usr/share/vim/.../colors/my-own-colors.vim).
I maintain my own which I have tweaked over several years and always install them on any new system or server, and I always have the same familiar vim!

Indeed. That's what I had for the past 10 years on my last trusty steed.
As update, the best and easiest solution is to get my own vim source code, compile it with --prefix=$HOME, and dump it in ~/bin, which is first in my path from .bashrc.
I guess I'm pretty picky about my editor. Default vim settings from factory make it look like Christmas in Times Square when the cursor moves. I can't get any work done.
Anyone have a good matchparens.vim? I can't find my old one.
I think it was about 6 lines long, not a petition to Ministry of HTML and Parentheses.
