Error inserting german symbols

[timokau]

Whenever I'm writing German symbols (ä, ü, ß), vim shows one of two errors at the bottom:

• IndexError: bitset::set: __posotion (which is 18446744073709551555) >= _NB (which is 128)
• IndexError: string index out of range

Which one of the errors appers seems to be random. The error clears when I exist insert mode and it doesnt seem to have any inpact on text editing. It only shows when I edit tex files. It shows in both vim and neovim.

This is strange, and I suspect it is not due to vimtex. Could you please provide a minimal working example on how to reproduce this? A minimal vimrc file that loads vimtex and a step by step procedure for how to get the error. See here for an example of a minimal vimrc file.

Indeed, its not vimtex. I could narrow it down to YouCompleteMe and then found this issue which seems to describe the problem.
I should of course have tested that before. But since I observed this problem only when editing tex files (presumably because these are generally the only files I write german in) and it was the newest addons I installed, I just assumed the problem was with vimtex.

Sorry for the false issues and thank you for your time!

No problem :)
