Yesterday evening I took second try with vim on os x (or actually macvim) and tried to install some plugins with GetLatestVimScripts. It took for a while to figure out why it didn’t download plugins. Only error message I got was “n downloading errors” where n was count of plugins. I hope this post will help if someone else has the same issue.
GLVS should work both with wget and curl. By default OS X only has curl installed and somehow GLVS do not work properly with curl (at least on mac). After one hour of figuring out what was causing the issue I gave up and installed wget from MacPorts and GLVS started to work like a charm. So if you have same issue try out wget if it would resolve also your issue.
I don’t if this is a bug in GetLatesVimScript plugin or what. Maybe I should create a ticket of the issue.
