Remember that thing about implicitly condoning stupidity?
but first we gotta know what gvim you have:
Package gvim is a virtual package provided by:\n vim-tcl 1:6.3-015+1\n vim-ruby 1:6.3-015+1\n vim-python 1:6.3-015+1\n vim-perl 1:6.3-015+1\n vim-lesstif 1:6.3-015+1\n vim-gtk 1:6.3-015+1\n vim-gnome 1:6.3-015+1
Uh, which one.
But anyway, the process is the same:
mkdir foo ; cd foo
dpkg-deb -x /where/the/packge/is/virt-gvim-someversion.i386.deb .That will extract the package with foo/ as the "rootdir"
get the file(s) you want out of there. BTW gvim is prolly vim with the "named version" added to it.
