I have been experiencing an issue with copy paste on vim Debian 9 Stretch, when you try to paste a copied text onto vim editor, it gives you and error which hinders you from pasting the text you copied onto vim. I tried to figure out whats the issue and later i came into a solution which i would like to share too. If there is anyone experiencing the same can use the below settings to enable the feature again
I created a new file which was not available in the vim conf directory /etc/vim/vimrc.local and entered the below content
runtime! defaults.vim let g:skip_defaults_vim = 1 set mouse=
