I installed geany and geany-plugins from git on a fresh xubuntu 16.04 system, and found this same issue

When I try to debug, it instead hangs with geany using 100% cpu. It seems to get past the stage of actually loading gdb, and i have found that geany rarely responds to mouse clicks, and when I kill gdb, it goes back to functioning normally.

I have tried with geany 1.27 and had the same issue

here are the steps I have used to go from a fresh linux install to my current state:

sudo apt-get install git libvte-dev libtool
sudo apt-get install ctags gdb meld nemiver libwebkit-dev vim

git clone https://github.com/geany/geany
cd geany
./autogen.sh --disable-html-docs
make
sudo make install
cd ..

git clone https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins
cd geany-plugins
./autogen.sh --disable-html-docs
make
sudo make install

I then enable scope debugger, at which point the issue becomes apparent
