let g:skip_defaults_vim = 1 The latest version of vim in Debian/Unstable suggests adding the above to / etc/vim/vimrc.local to get the past behavior. A quick test indicates that it does as desired. But thanks for the other suggestions, it's good to have plenty of options for the lurkers. On Wednesday, 19 October 2016 7:30:07 PM AEDT Todd Harbour via luv-main wrote:

Russell,
I just encountered this on one of my other systems and actually found
the answer to be the clipboard variable. To "fix" vim I used: :set clipboard=
From a quick test this stopped vim from clobbering my X11 CLIPBOARD/SELECTION on visual selection etc. Also, I am still able to use "* and "+ to manipulate the X11 SELECTION if desired, I believe due to my ttymouse being set to: ttymouse=xterm2
FWIW, my mouse variable is also unset.
Anyway, obviously, YMMV as I'm just using trial-and-error here :P
