Description Georg Sauthoff 2017-07-22 15:14:01 UTC
Description of problem:
The documentation string of the enabled-extensions gsettings configuration key (located under org.gnome.shell) describes the D-Bus methods EnableExtension and DisableExtension but those methods don't exist.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-3.24.2-1.fc26.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. gsettings describe org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions
2. qdbus org.gnome.Shell /org/gnome/Shell | grep -i 'enable\|disable'
3.

Actual results:
$ gsettings describe org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions
    GNOME Shell extensions have a UUID property; this key lists extensions which should be loaded. Any extension that wants to be loaded needs to be in this list. You can also manipulate this list with the EnableExtension and DisableExtension D-Bus methods on org.gnome.Shell.
$ qdbus org.gnome.Shell /org/gnome/Shell | grep -i 'enable\|disable'
$

Expected results:
Either an updated gsettings documentation string that mentions those methods - or: getting them listed by the above D-Bus query (and being able to call them).

This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life.
On 2018-Nov-30  Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 27. 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that are no longer maintained.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 Fedora  'version' of '27'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 27 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, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2018-11-30 20:51:45 UTC
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
