I've been trying to get neovim running with vundle for two months or so without success.
I'll try to make this a little detailed to make it easier for you to understand what I've done so far.
Linux Mint 19.1
- Installed Neovim + Git for Git clone
Than I run
git clone ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vimLocated .vimrc file in "/usr/share/vim"
- put in all the stuff required starting with
set nocompatible " be iMproved, required filetype off " required " set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim - Also created a .vimrc file in "/home" directory and put the same stuff inside as in the past step
Problem: When I start Neovim and try to execute :PluginInstall, I get the error
E492 no editor command.
I don't know what went wrong here. Hope somebody could help me with this :)

You also need to source the .vimrc from your neovim initiator. Nvim normally uses $HOME/.config/nvim/init.vim, rather than .vimrc. Add source /usr/share/vim/.vimrc to the nvim init file.
I would also suggest putting in your user folder, not /home, but /home/[username].
If that fails, ensure you are sourcing the file with your vundle code. Add this code to the file: echom "loaded vimrc"
Then load neovim, and type :messages. If the line added above doesn't appear, then the file isn't being read. If that's the case, type :e $MYVIMRC and add the code into the file that appears.
