Ok, now here comes the workaround:
http://github.com/potyl/gedit-scrollpaste
Emmanuel Rodriguez aka 'potyl' wrote a 'plugin' which fixes the scrolling when
pasting text with the mouse.
Unfortunately, it's placed in sourcecode only in a 'repository-style', which
means there's no configure script.
As I'm not very familar with these auto* tools, it took me a day to make it
compile, but for me it's worth the pain.
In short form: After archiv extraction, call in the top level dir:
intltoolize --force --copy,
intltool-prepare,
aclocal,
automake --add-missing,
autoheader,
autoconf,
Then I created a 'Makefile.in' on the top level dir:
--------------------
all:
$(MAKE) -C "src" || break ;
--------------------
Now it should be possible to call the usual configure, make.
I prefered to copy the files manually instead of 'make install'.
I can confirm this thing works for me!
BTW: Potyl demands the use of gtksourceview-2.0 >= 2.8.1, so it's not
applicable to Ubuntu jaunty and below.
