From your github:Actually, the armel stretch package formally only depends on libc6 >= 2.4 [1], so at least that shouldn't be a problem when just installing the Stretch package on Maemo with libc6 2.5.1. Of course there might be actual binary dependencies in neovim that require a higher libc6 version, but if that's the case, you should file a bug report against the Debian package, asking for corrected dependencies. btw, I don't know neovim, but the N900 is my only device where I prefer nano over vim because I find it hard to hit vi shortcuts without breaking my fingers. Does this work any better with neovim? [1] https://packages.debian.org/stretch/neovim
