It seems that this bug has been fixed. I am currently using Gedit 3.1O.4 in ubuntu 14.04 and the margin scales correctly. Should the status of this bug be updated ?

The width of the Gedit line number margin (enabled in preferences) doesn't scale with the font size. I am visually impaired and thus have my gedit font size set to 16. However when I do this and press enter a few times (so I have more than 9 lines in a file) the margin isn't expanded to fit the new two digit number. When we have more than 99 lines (three digits), the margin scales correctly once more. This happens on a new setup with fresh configuration files. Steps to reproduce: 1). Open gedit 2). Change font size to 16 (probably also has issues at other sizes too). 3). Make more than 9 lines in the file.
