geany-plugins in Slackware Current resulted in a segmentation fault
by linux91 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53MD4)
The problem was apparently associated with the installed geany-plugins-1.36 package,
(clone of github master 20200430), since removing the geany-plugins package allowed the geany environment to load.
Cloning,rebuilding, and installing geany-plugins using the github master (20200513, last commit 062865e) allowed geany to load, prior to enabling any plugins. Enabled all plugins using the Tools, Manage Addons.. except enabling the geanypy addon caused and immediate segmentation fault.
Without the geanypy addon enabled, geany seems to work with all other addons.
The previous clone of github geany-plugins (20200430) was not rebuilt so this may be caused by just a change in software of which geany-plugins are, or more specifically, geanypy is, dependent.
In either case, geanypy seems to be a symptom of a greater issue involving the reliance of geany (scite,lua?), on python2 vs. python3 and Gtk2 vs. Gtk3.
Has anyone else experienced this segmentation fault?
