Vim-plug: installing plugins on ssh lead to SEGV

[napseis]

hi,

I wanted to replicated my vim setup on a cluster running centos, over ssh.
But, even with a minimal .vimrc:

call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')
Plug 'vim-airline/vim-airline'
call plug#end()

I get a crash:

Vim: Caught deadly signal SEGV
Vim: Finished.

let g:plug_threads = 1 doesn't help.

Thanks

Does :ruby require 'thread' crash your Vim?

[junegunn]

Hi, I believe the above commit should fix the problem if let g:plug_threads = 1 is set. Let me know if you still have issues. For parallel installer to work, you'll have to either fix Ruby interface or upgrade to Vim 8.

[napseis]

It does work, thanks a lot ! Being a user on a cluster, i don't have much control except recompile vim (if possible with installed libraries..)

[markubiak]

I can also confirm this issue exists and that let g:plug_threads=1 at the top of my .vimrc solves this bug.

[junegunn]

Yeah, but I suggest that you properly fix your Vim installation, or upgrade to Vim 8.
