works correctly copy the `mvim` script from the [MacVim][] download to your
local binary folder (for example `/usr/local/bin/mvim`) and then symlink it:

### I'm trying to use a Homebrew Vim with YCM and I'm getting segfaults
Something (I don't know what) is wrong with the way that Homebrew configures and
builds Vim. I recommend using [MacVim][]. Even if you don't like the MacVim GUI,
you can use the Vim binary that is inside the MacVim.app package (it's
`MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim`) and get the Vim console experience.
### I have a Homebrew Python and/or MacVim; can't compile/SIGABRT when starting
You should probably run `brew rm python; brew install python` to get the latest
fixes that should make YCM work with such a configuration. Also rebuild Macvim
then. If you still get problems with this, see [issue #18][issue18] for
suggestions.
