Description of problem: The gnome-shell-extension-topicons-plus and gnome-shell shipped in the F34 repo are incompatible. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-extension-topicons-plus-27-3.fc34 gnome-shell-40.0~beta-2.20210304git7a57528bd.fc34.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install extension. 2. Try to activate with Extensions app. Actual results: Extension reported incompatible. Expected results: Extension works, or package removed. Additional info: The extension does NOT work properly if "40.beta" is added to shell-version in metadata.json. The extension's Github page indicates it is no longer actively maintained.
> The extension's Github page indicates it is no longer actively maintained. True, the original author doesn't really work on it anymore, although I think he's still willing to accept pull requests, and the community has managed to come together whenever there's a TopIcons Plus-breaking change to the GNOME APIs, so that could still happen again. I filed the issue upstream, in case anybody sees it and can fix it. https://github.com/phocean/TopIcons-plus/issues/155 In the meanwhile, I'll build an update to show that GNOME 3.38 is the last compatible Shell for the current version of TopIcons Plus.
Thanks. I think a lot of it's just the change to GTK+4 -- I was able to get a couple of other extensions working by bodging them to the newer API.
In the meanwhile, I released TopIcons Plus v27-4 (currently testing in Bodhi), updating the dependencies to show it's incompatible with GNOME 40.

However the extension gnome-shell-extension-appindicator works flawlessly however with less customisation.
