https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/J2CJLY3CF55I2ULG2X4ENXLSXAXYW5J4/

The issue is fixed upstream in 8.2.3402:

I'm not sure if neovim is affected.

New vim package:

src:
    - vim-8.2.2143-3.1.mga8


i took a look and seems this is not valid on neovim.

mga8, x64

Updated the four packages.
vim working as expected; mode switching, keystroke commands, copy&paste.  Tried :q, :q! and :wq exit commands.
Tried editing filelist and using the :next command - worked fine.
Tried unfamiliar commands like search back (:?pattern) and forwards (;/).  Looks like those work.   
Researched tags but found they apply to code only and come in several varieties.  Not today thank you.

This looks OK for 64-bits.
