Yeah I know, I use it quite a bit too. I just thought in the intial trials that the program was having problems with it.

ln -s libgpm.so.1.17.3 libgpm.so.1

and only then I could run vim.

I never even thought to check to see if things were installed. Thanks for the help. I feel so like a noob.

Could this broken deb have borked up the state of the app installer somehow?

I haven't had any problems. I installed Gaim after vim with the application installer, and it works fine. I did go back and remove all the files (dpkg -c <package name> ) that the application manager put in. I wanted the dpkg -x install for vim.
