Bug#705527: gedit-plugins: Plugin External Tools not working

[Pierre Cros]

Package: gedit-plugins
Version: 3.4.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I use Gedit 3.6 (sid) whereas most of my gnome packages are 3.8 (experimental).
I can't install 3.8 because of python3-gi (>= 3.0) dependancy (python3-gi 3.8
depends on python3 (< 3.3) but 3.3.0-3 has to be installed)).

When I launch Gedit from Gnome-shell, even with the plugin External Tools
activated, I can't see the external tools entry in the tools menu.
When I launch Gedit -s in a terminal I have the following message :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/gedit/plugins/externaltools/windowactivatable.py", line 171,
in do_activate
    self.window.set_data("ExternalToolsPluginWindowData", self)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/overrides/GObject.py", line 555, in
_unsupported_data_method
    raise RuntimeError('Data access methods are unsupported. '
RuntimeError: Data access methods are unsupported. Use normal Python attributes
instead
