Evening,

I've lost vi.

I was trying to update ubuntu 8.04 to add vi as the default editor and
in the process I have lost vi and replaced it wil vim.

I was running:

sudo update-alternatives editor ...

But messed up the command line and seams to trash /usr/bin/vi

I've tried apt-cache search vi but all can see if vim.

Any hints or tips to try and get vi back?

John
