Ok, done that - compiling from source was surprisingly easy (Ubuntu 8.04: git
clone ...; cd geany; ./autogen.sh; make; make install).

However, it seems the RegEx isn't working as expected:
    error_regex=(.+?):([0-9]+)
When I click on the following error message:
    test.py:7:24: E202 whitespace before ']'
... the status bar says:
    Could not open /tmp/test.py:7 (No such file or directory)"
So it appears the non-greedy matching doesn't work.

Am I missing something?
