Doesn't work on Amazon Linux with gedit 3.28.1

[Gianluca755]

It doesn't work and causes a reset of the gedit configuration.

Can you give more details regarding the configuration reset?

I install the plugin with the instructions on GitHub. Plugin installer is present in the plugin list in gedit. If I select it I got plugin loader 'python3' was not found, found this with setting Loader=python but no result, tried 2to3 on the code but it failed with:

    (result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xf3 in position 1: invalid continuation byte

It is probably my fault due to some config.

I think switching the loader won't help. Sadly I cannot help with how to install necessary dependencies on Amazon Linux.
