debian packages 4 kinds of vim:

1. vim-tiny: This is Tiny version of vim, pretty useless IMO.
2. vim: This is Huge version of vim without GUI support and without
X11 support.
3. vim-gtk: This is Huge version with GTK+2 support.
4. vim-gnome: This is vim-gtk with gnome/kde session support.

So you see, you cannot get a normal version from debian package
manager. And you really need the Huge version just in order to get the
syntax highlight.

Personally, I always compile my own vim, because I want a console-only
vim with X11 support. (console vim with X11 supports mouse)
