Can't find the debugger plugin in any of the recent geany-plugins .deb

Some distributions switched to a GTK+3 build of Geany before all the plugins were ported. Those plugins which weren't ported were left out of the distribution packages.


The Debugger plugin (and I believe the Scope plugin) are both now ported to GTK+ 3. You will, as you suspected, have to build from source if your distro has not added newer versions of the plugin packages.

Some subset of the related bug reports about this:
