You're absolutely right. There are some plugins that are installed by
default in gedit, but some plugins are only available when you install the
gedit-plugins package.

I'll move the extra plugins (those installed in the gedit-plugins package)
into a separate repository for the next release.

Thanks for bringing this up.

Jim
