Comment 1 Georg Sauthoff 2022-10-25 22:44:45 UTC

Still incompatible on Fedora 37 and upstream writes:

> Note: Gnome Shell 3.32+ automatically refreshes the wifi list every 15 s.
> I really don't see the need for this extension any more.
> Nevertheless, I am keeping it updated just in case its needed for some special reason.

FWIW, upstream currently supports Gnome Shell 42.

Version: gnome-shell-extension-refresh-wifi-6.0-11.fc37.noarch

So perhaps this package simply should be orphaned.

Same issue with GNOME 44 on Fedora 38.
