Comment(by nigra@…):

 Replying to [ticket:22992 nigra@…]:
 > gedit compiles, installs and is basically functional, but changes cannot
 be made to the preferences. The preferences notebook has all options
 frozen (greyed out) except the "Plug-ins" page, which seems to allow
 checking and un-checking plug-ins. There were no such problems with gedit
 under Leopard.

 This *might* provide a clue: I just found out that the same preferences
 symptom can happen under Ubuntu (9.10 & 10.04LTS), but *only* if I open
 gedit from a CLI as root, but it's fine if I open it with the GUI
 interface, "gksu" as root. gedit v2.28.0 and v2.30.2 (I think) are in the
 two Ubuntu platforms I tried.

 FYI: The sorting problem fixed itself a while ago with, I believe, a
 dependency update when updating macports and recompiling, or just one of
 the gedit updates. I should have updated the ticket.
