> GNOME Shell extension is not needed anymore as the functionality is already included in GNOME and thus the package is obsolete.
Hm, how do I enable a suspend button in Gnome Shell (on Fedora 37) without an extension?
Perhaps I have tomatoes on my eyes but couldn't find anything related in the settings/tweak UI.

It's presented there - press the "Power" button in the top right corner of the quick settings (see the "Sub-menus" part in https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/os-mockups/-/blob/d8af2881dbcbb2ea6b0ff395551a4361893f7349/system-status/quick-settings/quick-toggles-3.png). Well, in that case the functionality of this extension is NOT already included in GNOME. The unique selling point of the suspend button extension was that it provides a one click suspend button, i.e. without having to mess around with sub-menus. See also its screenshot from the gnome extension site: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension-data/screenshots/screenshot_826.png For sure, it still is reasonable to retire this package because it's broken in Fedora since at least Fedora 33 (cf. #1898048 which also has zero activity from the package maintainer) and it looks like upstream abandoned it, as well (cf. e.g. https://github.com/laserb/gnome-shell-extension-suspend-button/pull/54#issuecomment-945120006). This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 36 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 36 on 2023-05-16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of '36'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 36 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version prior to this bug being closed. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle. Changing version to 39. |
