It might well be that it's only a few trivial lines of a patch to get it working again with the latest GEdit. I don't know though because it's not an area I'm familiar with. I just know that his last fix kept it alive for a while. -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Dear Kip, thanks for your mail and references. I have asked ildar, in the bug you referred to, additional details on what broke in the last Gedit versions. If anybody is able to fix his fork, or produce another one and make some minimal commitment to update it (or accept contributions for it) over time, I will be happy to switch the Debian package to it. The best thing would clearly be having an up to date fork owned by a project, rather than an individual who (legitimately) writes "I personally don't plan to maintain this regularly". I would be happy to be in such a project and occasionally contribute - while I would not want to simply package my personal fork. Pietro

Package: gedit-source-code-browser-plugin Version: 3.0.3-6 Severity: important Tags: upstream X-Debbugs-Cc: k...@thevertigo.com Dear Maintainer, Thank you for continuing to maintain the Debian gedit-source-code- browser-plugin: As you may be aware there has been no activity in more than a decade upstream. Bit rot is making the plugin no longer usable with recent versions of GEdit. There is a fork that is maintained by ildar below: https://github.com/ildar/gedit-source-code-browser Unfortunately I am advised by the maintainer that it too is currently no longer compatible with the latest GEdit. https://github.com/MicahCarrick/gedit-source-code-browser/issues/40#issuecomment-1909725836 I have asked ildar if he intends to continue maintaining it. If he does, then you you might want to consider switching from the old upstream to ildar's release. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers mantic-updates APT policy: (500, 'mantic-updates'), (500, 'mantic-security'), (500, 'mantic'), (100, 'mantic-proposed'), (100, 'mantic-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.5.0-14-generic (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages gedit-source-code-browser-plugin depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.40.0-4 ii gedit 44.2-1 ii python3 3.11.4-5 ii universal-ctags [ctags] 5.9.20210829.0-1 ii xfconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 4.16.0-2vanir1~21.04 gedit-source-code-browser-plugin recommends no packages. gedit-source-code-browser-plugin suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
