Hi,
pluma depends on python-gtksourceview2, which is long deprecated and
going to be removed from the archive. pluma should switch to using
the GObject Introspection bindings for gtksourceview,
gir1.2-gtksource-3.0.
This would mean switching to GObject Introspection for other bindings
as well, e.g. GLib and GTK+ 3.
For more information on GObject Introspection see [1] and [2].
Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to
try to remove it this cycle.
If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.
Emilio
