Debian has elvis-tiny as the minimalist vi package in /bin
$ ls -la /bin/vi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3660 Jan 23 2002 /bin/vi
$ ls -la /bin/elvis-tiny
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 67436 Jan 23 2002 /bin/elvis-tiny
/bin/vi is actually a piece of wrapper code that makes some checks and
then runs a VI version that's available (and working in the current
environment).
As you can see elvis-tiny is really small and it's library requirements
are very minimal (and all in /lib)
$ ldd /bin/elvis-tiny
libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x4001a000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40059000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
Elvis(-tiny) is mostly vi compatible and still has some nice features. I
