I have installed Geany and its plug-ins on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Debian "Buster" with: `sudo apt install geany` and `sudo apt install geany-plugins` but I find no evidence that a debugger was installed.
How do I install the debugger plug-in, and how do I check that it has been installed successfully?
``` ~> geany --version geany 1.33 (built on 2018-04-16 with GTK 3.22.29, GLib 2.56.1) ~> uname -a Linux pi4 4.19.75-v7l+ #1270 SMP Tue Sep 24 18:51:41 BST 2019 armv7l GNU/Linux
```
Debugger plugin was not ported to GTK3 until 1.36 I think.
There's also the Scope plugin, but I believe that was ported to GTK+3 in 1.34
As a workaround, I have been able to build and install Geany and the debugger plugin from source. It also required to install libvte-2.91-dev as per [this issue](https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/issues/913#issuecomment-536662437).
fixed
Closed #942.
