I'm still curious about the discrepencies in the version numbers, does yours come up with conflicting numbers on the splash screen?

I can only confirm that you are right on that one as well :-) Also true for RHEL BTW.

From the vi --debug output it seems obvious that vi reports the highest

included patch in the version. So what I think happened is that Red Hat started off from 7.0.109 and added patches upto 237.

Still confusing though.

Or at least added a patch that erroneously changed the version label to that version.
