I've been trying to find a working version of the html2latex perl script, and so far all I've found are semi-correct, out dated versions.
Is someone maintaining this tool somewhere, with up-to-date bug fixes etc...? Any up-to-date ports to other languages would work for me, too.

I have installed Kate Editor (with KWrite, which installs some plugins) in Ubuntu 15.04, and I have just realized that the Kate External Tools plugin is missing since version 4.8.
I really need this plugin, and if anyone could show me where to find an older Kate version or even the plugin itself I would really appreciate that.
By the way, I have found in this webpage the plugin, but (my Linux level is average) I am not able to install it: even the first command gives a problem, and you have to click on "actions" in the left bar... If someone could show me how to build it, that would be really helpful...
Thanks in advance!!
A Kate developer here: Unfortunately, the External Tools plugin was never ported to newer versions of KDE and in particular Plasma 5. There were changes in the plugin architecture, and due to some bugs and no maintainer, this plugin got lost.
We would be very happy to accept this plugin again in Kate's git repository, making it an official part of Kate again. But someone needs to implement it or port it to Kate 5. You can find more information in this bug report.
Update 2019-01-31: I am currently working on bringing this back to Kate: https://phabricator.kde.org/D17971 It will take another 2-3 weeks, though.
Update 2019-09-21: It is back, and will be released with the KDE Applications Release 19.12. See:

now that they release v0.5.0 the question is how can I upgrade from 0.4.6 to 0.5.0 without loosing all my packages? is there even a way. Or if there is no easy way, how have people done it? What is the best way to do it?
Other question is, is it worth it or do I need to upgrade? What are the benefits or why I should not upgrade (yet)? Is there problems with Atom and other packages?
Yes there is quest same question already, but it is for older version and I thought if something has changed on upgrading.
You can go into your .julia/v0.4 folder and copy the REQUIRE file to the v0.5 folder. Then when you Pkg.update() your packages should automatically install.
There are very many upgrades (broadcast syntax, arraypoclypse, string changes, etc.), and many packages may stop supporting v0.4 for this reason. I would recommend you start upgrading soon. Juno has already released its v0.5 version, so when you update it should be compatible.
when I typed in $ ruby -v the output appeared as below:
ruby 1.9.3p194 (2012-04-20 revision 35410) [x86_64-darwin11.4.0]
In the past, I used to see the output as:
ruby 1.9.3
Why is my ruby version appearing with more data now? I am new to programming and am wondering if I messed up my computer. Help! Thank you in advance!
Are you using RVM to manage your ruby versions? If not I would reccomend doing so.

Chances are, you upgraded your Ruby installation somewhere along the line (or your system package manager did). It's very unlikely that you messed anything up.
It sounds like you are not using RVM, and that the system package manager installed an update. I would strongly recommend using RVM, it will save you tons of head ache in the future.

If you are not familiar with it, it is a great version manager created by Wayne Seguin. It allows you use specific versions of ruby and specific gems for different projects.
The Scala website says:
For historical and testing purposes, we also keep an archive of
previous releases (currently since version 2.5). Prior versions of
Scala, from 0.9.x to 2.4.x, have been archived offline.
Is there any way to get these versions? The source code is available in the git repo, but binaries would be nice.
EDIT:
I found some old versions at archive.org, but the oldest that I could get was 1.1.1.3 from http://web.archive.org/web/20040603140225/http://scala.epfl.ch/downloads/index.html
It turns out, if one looks hard enough, everything from 1.0.0-b4 can be found on archive.org. Unfortunately, some version in between are nowhere to be found, for example 2.3.x and 2.0.x. The question remains why they aren't published on http://scala-lang.org.
I want to compile the latest snapshot version of gedit on OSX as it has a lot of bug fixes and a number of new features, but I'm a little confused about the requirements to compile the sourcecode.
The readme says I need the GTK+-3 libraries, but for the life of me I can't seem to find them. I've gone through the GTK site, but there is only the 2.0 series available. Google doesn't seem to show any results for the 3.0 series either.
Anyone know how/where to get them?

GTK 3 has not actually been released yet, it's the current "in-development" version for the upcoming release of Gnome 3. It's still in development and not at all ready for mainstream use.
Still, if you really insist on trying it out, you can get a source tarball from the Gnome FTP server.
GTK+ 3 has been released some time ago (10-Feb-2001):
