[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1010836: biosyntax-gedit: No longer works with recent versions of gedit

[Carl Suster]

Package: biosyntax-gedit
Version: 1.0.0b-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The gedit support for biosyntax works by dropping files in:

    /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/

The README.Debian says that this should cause a theme to appear in gedit at

    Edit > Preferences > Font & Color > bioSyntax

No such entry appears. I notice that gedit depends on libgtksourceview-4-0 and
that there exist directories

    /usr/share/gtksourceview-4/
    /usr/share/gtksourceview-5/

I tested copying the style definition to the corresponding place under
gtksourceview-4/ and gedit picked it up properly, so it seems that the files
should be installed at that path instead.
