The line of the traceback implies there was no XML to read. Your
installation is missing, or cannot find the snippets. This looks like an
installation or environment issue Most distros install the snippets at

    /usr/share/gedit-2/plugins/snippets

Do you have snippets at

    /usr/local/share/gedit-2/plugins/snippets/

Gedit also checks your local directory for snippets. You can copy the
snippets to

    .gnome2/gedit/snippets/

to make visible and editable.
