vimdoc.hook error

I've tried installing a few vim plugins, e.g. vim-ctrlp from the official repos, vim-vimtex, vim-delimitmate-git, vim-csv from the AUR. In all cases, vimdoc.hook produced an error.

$ sudo pacman -S vim-ctrlp
...

    ctags: for searching tags [installed]

error: command failed to execute correctly

I looked at the hook file at /usr/share/libalpm/hooks/vimdoc.hook, and ran the command manually.

sudo bash -c '/usr/bin/vim -es --cmd ":helptags /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/doc" --cmd ":q"'

but this did not produce an error.

EDIT: bug submitted
