As of today, infra/common/default.nix includes the following lines:

   environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
     (pkgs.vim_configurable.customize {
       name = "vim";
       vimrcConfig.packages.myplugins = with pkgs.vimPlugins; {
         start = [ vim-nix ]; # load plugin on startup
       };
       vimrcConfig.customRC = ''
         " your custom vimrc
         set nocompatible
         set backspace=indent,eol,start
         " Turn on syntax highlighting by default
         syntax on
         " ...
       '';
     })
     wget
     subversion
   ];

I'm not happy with them and neither is @fricklerhandwerk. I would be up for removing them altogether. The machines are Nix-capable, so if this is for very rare use, one can just nix run nixpkgs#vim or something like that, anyway.
