Error detected while processing "nvim/runtime/autoload/provider/python.vim"

See original GitHub issue

Everytime I try to launch neovim with python support I receive this error:

Error detected while processing /usr/local/Cellar/neovim/HEAD/share/nvim/runtime/autoload/provider/python.vim:
line   14:
E117: Unknown function: remote#host#RegisterClone
line   15:
E117: Unknown function: remote#host#RegisterPlugin

I read this post about how it was having issues with virtualenv. post >> https://github.com/neovim/python-client/issues/16

So, I uninstalled virtualenv. But I still have same issue. Vim does launch; only without python support.

You could try completely reinstalling nvim(delete the directories, especially runtime). The error you reported is because nvim is not finding vimscript that should be bundled with it, not because of python

Oops, sorry everyone. I overridden the runtimepath (instead of supplementing it) when resolving conflicting path issues with MacVim. Appears Resolved. Thanks for the Help!!! Python is reacting now.
