Title:
  powerline version from repository is not compatible with fish version

Status in powerline package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in powerline source package in Artful:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I just installed the powerline apt package on Ubuntu 17.10 and
  followed the documentation to install it for the Fish prompt, then I
  got the error below after trying to launch Fish. The {repository_root}
  of this ubuntu package I am using in my config. file is "/usr/share",
  which is where the powerline bindings for Fish are located at.
  Powerline version is 2.5-1.1.

  /usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish/powerline-setup.fish (line 35): function: Illegal function name '--on-variable'
  		function --on-variable fish_key_bindings _powerline_set_default_mode
  			if test x$fish_key_bindings != xfish_vi_key_bindings
  		^
  in function “powerline-setup”
  	called on line 14 of file ~/.config/fish/config.fish

  from sourcing file ~/.config/fish/config.fish
  	called during startup

  /usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish/powerline-setup.fish (line 42): function: Illegal function name '--on-variable'
  		function --on-variable POWERLINE_COMMAND _powerline_update

  		^

  	called on line 14 of file ~/.config/fish/config.fish

  	called during startup

  /usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish/powerline-setup.fish (line 78): 
  		_powerline_set_default_mode
  		^
  in function “powerline-setup”
  	called on line 14 of file ~/.config/fish/config.fish

  from sourcing file ~/.config/fish/config.fish
  	called during startup

  /usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish/powerline-setup.fish (line 79):

  		^
  in function “powerline-setup”
  	called on line 14 of file ~/.config/fish/config.fish

  from sourcing file ~/.config/fish/config.fish
  	called during startup

  I already filed a bug
  (https://github.com/powerline/powerline/issues/1850) in the powerline
  project page and they told me to report a bug for this ubuntu package.
  Can you fix this error?
