RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Martin Krajnak 2019-06-18 15:08:34 UTC
Description of problem:
Clicking on rpm installed extensions in tweak tool points to page in gnome-software which belongs to other extension with the same name from the extensions.gnome.org. Furthermore, instead of Extension Settings and Remove button, the install button is shown which might be confusing.

List of extensions: 
Applications Menu
Launch New Instance
User Themes
....

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-tweaks-3.28.1-3.el8.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Tweaks
2.Navigate to extensions, double click on Applications Menu

Actual results:
In gnome-software you can find the app menu extension source extensions.gnome.org and install button (extension is already installed)

Expected results:
Should open the right extension with settings and remove button

Additional info:
You can find the Applications menu in gnome-software with version 3.32.1-4.el8, marked as installed, source is @commandline. That's why I think there is wrong page

Comment 1 Martin Krajnak 2019-06-18 15:10:32 UTC
For convenience
gnome-shell-extension-apps-menu-3.32.1-4.el8.noarch
gnome-shell-extension-windowsNavigator-3.32.1-4.el8.noarch

Comment 2 Milan Crha 2019-06-18 15:53:57 UTC
Thanks for a bug report. I do not see how to tell gnome-software to open installed page instead of "the first it finds for the given application ID", when the applications/plugins/... can come from multiple sources. The extension itself doesn't give a clue where its origin is, whether an rpm file or the web site or whatever, thus the gnome-tweaks cannot use --details-pkg instead. They currently call:

   $ gnome-software --details=user/\*/extensions-web/shell-extension/alternate-tab_gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com/\*

for the AlternateTab extension, which installs all its files to:

   /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/alternate-tab\@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com/

which also contains meta-info.json, where is no clue about corresponding rpm.

I'm moving this to gnome-software for any advice. It's possible I overlooked something obvious.

Comment 3 Kalev Lember 2019-06-18 15:59:00 UTC
I believe this is a gnome-tweaks bug. We should backport https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gnome-tweaks/blob/master/f/0001-extensions-Fix-opening-system-installed-extensions-i.patch to gnome-tweaks to fix this.

Comment 4 Milan Crha 2019-06-18 16:22:52 UTC
Oops, I didn't check what is in Fedora, neither upstream. My fault. Thanks for the pointer.
