Description Alan Rempel 2024-06-04 01:57:51 UTC

Neovim seems to be missing the treesitter parser for vim help files. When viewing a help file, it displays an error message saying so. I believe this parser may be a new dependency for neovim 0.10.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open neovim
2. type ":help" and press enter

Expected behaviour:

The main help file displays without any errors messages

Actual behaviour:

An error message appears complaining that the treesitter parser for the "vimdoc" language (i.e. vim help files) is not installed. (The error message can be dismissed by pressing enter; the help file is highlighted with the legacy syntax highlighting.)

Full text of the error message:

Error detected while processing BufReadPost Autocommands for "*":
Error executing lua callback: /usr/share/nvim/runtime/filetype.lua:35: Error executing lua: /usr/share/nvim/runtime/filetype.lua:36: BufReadPost Autocommands for "*"..FileType Autocommands for "*"..function <SNR>1_LoadFTPlugin[20]..script /usr/share/nvim/runtime/ftplugin/help.lua: Vim(runtime):E5113: Error while calling lua chunk: /usr/share/nvim/runtime/lua/vim/treesitter/language.lua:107: no parser for 'vimdoc' language, see :help treesitter-parsers

A lot of (runtime-)dependencies are missing (not only tree-sitter-vimdoc):

The dependencies for `USE_BUNDLED=OFF` (like it's done for Tumbleweed) can be found in neovim's Build.md: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/master/BUILD.md#how-to-build-without-bundled-dependencies

So I sat myself down, to see if I can fix neovim. Having said that, I am at my end of my expertise, as I get an error like this:
```

```

when executing :h

this seems to be openSUSE specific, as no other distro has this. on top of that, I asked for help in their support channel and nobody got a clue what could cause this.

if somebody wants to have a look, I have the packages here https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:rrahl0:upgrades and the neovim package https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:rrahl0:upgrades/neovim

Comment 3 Christian Ludwig 2024-06-27 13:15:34 UTC

After https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1182975  all needed runtime-dependencies are now included.
