[Bug 899720] Re: gvim visual mode commands/operators not working

[awesan]

Never mind. While debugging further, I figured out that the problem does
not happen when I renamed .vimrc file and .vim directory. So, some
plugin or some .vimrc settings that I happened to install is affecting
the select mode. I will debug and fix that. Sorry for the confusion and
you can reject this bug report.

Title:
  gvim visual mode commands/operators not working

Status in “vim” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In gvim (in the GUI mode), after selecting text in visual mode
  (Shift+V) for example, typing any operator or command for visual mode
  (~ key for example to convert the case of the selected text) does not
  perform the command, but gvim goes to "Insert mode" and actually
  inserts "~" character, which is very very annoying. I verified that I
  have the latest gvim package (vim-gnome
  2:7.3.154+hg~74503f6ee649-2ubuntu3). I tried with and without
  "UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0" while starting gvim and it is the same problem.
  "vim" (not the GUI mode) that I can start inside the shell does not
  have this problem. I use gvim (GUI mode) heavily since I use multiple
  tabs ("-p"). Please suggest me a solution/work-around.

  I am using Ubuntu:
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.10
  Release:	11.10
