update the gedit for php programming(searched not try yet)

to do -list
----------------------------------------------------------
You can find out where the other gedit plugins are already installed by doing:
------------------------------------------------------------

updatedb 


sudo updatedb


locate gedit-2/plugins


And look for them in something like /usr/lib. Then, you can rerun the configure as shown above passing in the lib dir:

./configure --libdir=/usr/lib


Assuming you're okay with the simpler method (installing the plugin in your home dir), the entire process might look something like this:

# DOWNLOAD AND EXTRACT SOURCES
cd ~
wget ftp://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/sources/gedit/2.20/gedit-2.20.3.tar.gz
tar -xzf gedit-2.20.3.tar.gz
cd gedit-2.20.3
cd plugins
wget http://superb-west.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/symbol-browser/gedit-symbol-browser-plugin-0.1.tar.gz
tar -xzf gedit-symbol-browser-plugin-0.1.tar.gz

# EDIT MAKE AND CONFIGURE FILES
sed -i 's/SUBDIRS =/SUBDIRS = \t\\\n\tsymbolbrowser\t/g' Makefile.am
sed -i 's/DIST_SUBDIRS =/DIST_SUBDIRS =\t\\\n\tsymbolbrowser\t/g' Makefile.am
cd ..
sed -i 's/AC_CONFIG_FILES(\[/AC_CONFIG_FILES(\[\nplugins\/symbolbrowser\/Makefile/g' configure.ac

# BUILD THE PLUGIN
autoconf
automake
./configure
cd plugins/symbolbrowser
make

# COPY TO HOME FOLDER 
# Note: if you ran ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib then make install may work
cp symbolbrowser.gedit-plugin .libs/libsymbolbrowser.so ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins/
cp -r symbols ~/.gnome2/gedit/
