“Just to rule it out, when you’re running gedit from the terminal, are you running it with sudo or as another user, or just as your own user?”
I was running it as my own user. That said, I tried sudo gedit. And that worked fine. I tried chmod to give everyone permission, that did not seem to work.
“You can go to the /usr/lib/gedit/plugin directory, find your plugin file and change Loader=python3 to Loader=python to see if that makes any difference…”
"Also can you check if you have all the necessary packages installed for libpeas?
apt-cache policy libgirepository-1.0-1 libc6 libglib2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libpeas-common libpython3.6
Kindly Post the output as preformatted text(select the output and press Ctrl+Shift+C)."
Was not at /usr/lib/gedit/plugin. I will find it tonight, I have to go for a few hours.
