Helpsplit option and vsplit/hsplit help flags dont work.

[WaflanCZ]

When I want to show or set helpsplit option it says that "helpsplit is not valid option".
And the help flags simply dont work.

Which version are you using? helpsplit was added in #3502 which was after 2.0.14, so it is not in any official release yet.

@dmaluka I am using 2.0.15-dev it is little weird that its dev version when the aur package says its 2.0.14-1.1 (I use this package: cachyos-extra-v3/micro) but becouse its newer version I would expect it to work.

[...] but becouse its newer version I would expect it to work.

And that is the fallacy, because it needs to be at least the version/hash (07f8cfb) in which it is fixed.

Commit hash: 04c5770

This tells us, that it is the hash tagged with v2.0.14.

I am using 2.0.15-dev it is little weird that its dev version when the aur package says its 2.0.14-1.1 (I use this package: cachyos-extra-v3/micro)

So the AUR package maintainer should do a proper versioning.

From my point of view this issue can be closed now.

@JoeKar Thanks for your help.

I don't think there's a problem with how the package (2.0.14-1.1) is created. I think that it's officially provided by CachyOS and based on the Arch Linux package, but I couldn't confirm this.

The wrong version string has been fixed with #3515 after 2.0.14, but this may also be fixed if both distributions rebuild the package now.

Unrelated: I am mostly inactive until I can properly contribute and communicate, but I'll try to work on my current pull requests when needed.

@niten94 Thanks for your response. Usualy the CachyOS repo only copys packages from the aur repo so the problem most likely is on the aur side.
