Synctex was completely removed from gedit
When writing LaTeX documents with gedit, the synctex plugin allowed one to conveniently switch between the PDF document in evince and the tex file in gedit by using STRG + Mouse click in either application. This is a central feature in many LaTeX editors and worked greatly in gedit.
With commit 9f59fd82 the synctex plugin was completely wiped from gedit-plugins. This makes gedit less attractive for anyone working with LaTeX documents. The synctex functionality is however still availaible in evince to my knowledge.
What was the problem with the synctex gedit plugin? Why was it removed? What can be done to bring it back?
