when upgrade geany-plugin-webhelper are missing and due that breaks my
geany instalation

i make pressure due i'm unnable to use webhelper and geany becomes
unnusable.. crash when push save button (due make refresh to the
plugin that does not exist and config file said are enabled, but its a
older version)

The geany and geany-plugins packages are 1.33-1 version,
geany-plugin-webhelper still only in 1.29 and it is unable to install
cause dependencies error:

geany-plugin-webhelper:
 Depende: geany-abi-71
  Depende: geany-plugins-common (=1.29+dfsg-1) pero se va a instalar
1.33+dfsg-1+b1


Seems problema around webkit support was resolved with that commit:

https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/pull/746/commits/4039a13882f4b9e2127f6e7b018bdbdffe36e2a2

and the bugt reported

Hi,

it seems as though geany-plugin-webhelper was removed from buster/sid.
Looking at the changelog, there's the following entry:

geany-plugins (1.32+dfsg-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * [67b34ed] Disable webkit-using plugins: markdown, webhelper
    webkitgtk-3.0 is not to be used as it is deprecated, but the port to
    webkit2gtk-4.0 isn't ready yet.
