Do you have python on system? Try in terminal:

sudo apt-get install python python3

[JuanHdz0]

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

This issue is look same? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/859089

[JuanHdz0]

Maybe, but I don't run from the command line because I don't know how... This looks same:

"When I try to enable some plugins in gedit, I get an error:
The plugin 'Bracket Completion' could not be loaded
An error occurred: Plugin loader 'python' was not found."

Only with Gedit/Gmate plugins.

[anaqueila]

in /usr/lib/gedit/plugin choice your plugin

for example gemini.plugin

Change

[Plugin]
Loader = python

by

[Plugin]
Loader = python3

In some plugins it worked for me

[ai]

@anaqueila Thanks! Should we change all plugin descriptors in project?

[JuanHdz0]

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!!! Thkns @anaqueila ... It works! :D Well.. At least with Gemini plugin. :s

I'll try that with others plugins, and then I'll comment my results.

[JuanHdz0]

Well... I thought so... Only in "Pair Character Completion" and "Snap Open" doesn't work change python => python3 ... >.<'

In the "Pair Character Completion" said:
The plugin 'Pair Character Completion' could not be loaded.
An error occurred: Failed to load.

And the same for "Snap Open"...

Everything was going so good. >.<'
