It seems as Python will be fetched from $PATH in Vim 8.1:
```
stat("/home/ma27/bin/python", 0x7ffe57a317b0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/run/wrappers/bin/python", 0x7ffe57a317b0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/home/ma27/.nix-profile/bin/python", 0x7ffe57a317b0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin/python", 0x7ffe57a317b0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/run/current-system/sw/bin/python", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0555, st_size=291, ...}) = 0
readlink("/run/current-system/sw/bin/python", "/nix/store/ggjkqbvwnv7dflkmdgmmp"..., 4096) = 72
```
This breaks in cases where you want to use a modified Python derivation
for the VIM plugins you use in `vim_configurable`:
```
let
vim_configurable' = vim_configurable.override {
# python with modules for ensime
python = python.withPackages (ps: with ps; [ sexpdata websocket_client ]);
};
in
vim_configurable'.customize {
# ...
}
```
With VIM 8.0 this worked perfectly fine, now it's necessary to install
the modified `python` in $PATH to actually use it, otherwise an error
like this arises:
```
[ensime] A dependency is missing, please `pip2 install sexpdata websocket-client` and restart Vim.
Press ENTER or type command to continue
```
However it should be possible to pass the modified Python to the
modules, the easiest workaround is to write a wrapper which prefixes
$PATH to have the Python derivation available.
* Never modify tabstop. This causes incompatibilities with other
utilities that expect tabs to always be 8 spaces.
* Add standard boilerplate for system-level filetype plugins.

* remove EOL ruby versions for security and maintenance reasons.
* only expose ruby_MAJOR_MINOR to the top-level. we don't provide
guarantees for the TINY version.
* mark all related packages as broken
* switch the default ruby version from 2.3.x to 2.4.x
This update contains a lot of fixes that are too much to be summarized
here, so here is the upstream changelog (basically "git log"):
https://github.com/vim/vim/commits/v8.0.1250
The main reason for this bump is that I got annoyed by a bug that was
fixed in upstream version 8.0.1194, which caused a race condition during
vim startup when it's trying to retrieve background colors from the
terminal.
Sometimes it could happen that random commands are executed at Vim
startup (typically pasting the "" buffer) and after bisecting I've found
out that version 8.0.1194 indeed fixed this problem.
The reason why I'm updating to version 8.0.1250 is that when looking
through the Git log it contains a whole lot of fixes but no new
features, so I'd assume it's safe to upgrade.
I've tested all packages that depend on Vim and they still succeed
building. In addition to that I've used the new version for a couple of
hours without any issue.

This doesn't change any defaults; I suspect that dropping gtk2 support
would annoy some people so I didn't want to do that without asking
around first.
- fix wrongly used *native* build inputs;
- remove confusing `prePatch = "cd src";` ;
- adapt RPATH handling to multiple-output changes;
- don't list full compiler flags in vim --version,
as that would keep references to -dev paths.
Together, the closure of the default feature-set drops almost by 100 MB.
The lean vim attribute would *not* lose any references due to patching
--version, so we only apply it for vim_configurable.
In the [discussion](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/18801) of this pull
request @LnL7 was unable to complete a darwin build because the
python_framework.patch does not apply and suggests it should be removed.
