Description:

Please re-enable the markdown plugin, it doesn't require webkitgtk (any more?) it works fine with webkit2gtk.

Additional info:
* package version: 1.36-2
* See also: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54514

Steps to reproduce:

The markdown plugin is not visible in the plugin manager, plugin's preferences or anywhere in IDE and does not function if a *.md file selected.

Adding webkit2gtk to depends should be enough to enable the plugin.
This task depends upon

Thanks for reporting! Added the Markdown plugin. The updated package will appear in [community] shortly.

Could you please consider making webkit2gtk an optdepend? It's a big dependency and is not related to core Geany functionality or other plugins.

When webkit2gtk is present, the markdown plugin is being built and included together with the other plugins.

I worry that the markdown plugin may simply crash if webkit2gtk was present at build-time but not when running Geany. I will have to try this first.
