It seems your distro hasn't updated the geany-plugins packages yet. geany-plugins 1.24 is binary-incompatible with geany 1.25.
Since it's source-level compatible you should be able to just rebuild the geany-plugins package from source until 1.25 of geany-plugins lands in your distro.
Best regards

Another thing to note is that a freshly compiled Geany 1.25 with GTK 3 enabled says that it isn’t compatible with similarly freshly compiled version 1.25 plugins. Disabling GTK 3 stopped it complaining. (I hope this isn’t just me being stupid.)
A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this release. Geany goes from strength to strength, and in 20 years’ I look forward to telling people “I was using Geany before it was cool.” :)

Plugins also need to be compiled against GTK3. You have to pass --enable-gtk3 in the same way.
But not all plugins are compilable under GTK3 yet. Therefore, if you have previously installed GTK2 plugins, then some of them will become stale if you just install the GTK3 plugins over them, and Geany will report incompatibility for the stale ones.

I don't think you do, it looks at the Geany it is being built for. I built G-P against my gtk3 geany and it made gtk3 plugins, and rejected the gtk2 only ones without any --enable-gtk3 on the plugin configure.
But not all plugins are compilable under GTK3 yet. Therefore, if you have previously installed GTK2 plugins, then some of them will become stale if you just install the GTK3 plugins over them, and Geany will report incompatibility for the stale ones.
Yes thats something to look out for, as only some plugins are gtk3 compatible it won't replace or delete any old gtk2 ones, but they should not load.

Sorry about this, I had some old Ubuntu-packaged version of Geany installed and Geany was trying to load its plugins instead of my own compiles.
Removed the cruft, recompiled and everything is fine. However, --enable-gtk3 doesn’t seem to work on the geany-plugins git. But the autogen’d build scripts do pick up on the fact that they are building for the installed instance of Geany, which is better. :)

I didn’t mean to imply otherwise :) Unfortunately, Tom Cruise, John Travolta and the other celebrity members serve to broaden the appeal of the sinister sci-fi cult that is the Church of Emacs, or at least I think that’s what I heard...

Correct, or as specified by --with-geany-libdir=
