Bug#953676: gedit: External tool not working on gedit v3.36

[Default User]

Package: gedit
Version: 3.36.0-3
Followup-For: Bug #953676

Dear Maintainer,

[PLEASE DISREGARD MESSAGE #10, AND DELETE, IF POSSIBLE.]

(I am just trying to figure out how to use reportbug, and I am having problems
with it.)

I just want to confirm that I have a very similar problem with gedit, since
updating to 3.36.0-3 on 2020-03-09 (Mon).

The "snippets" function does not paste a snippet into a  document.

And if I run gedit in Gnome terminal, and try to paste a snippet into a
document, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I know nothing about bug reporting, so that's all for now.

Thank you.
