Description of problem: Since a while extensions do not run, do not show. Think of Just Perfection, system-monitor, etc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-40.1-1.fc34.x86_64 How reproducible: Run Fedora with gnome on wayland? Actual results: No extensions running Expected results: Extensions running. Additional info:
One can start them via https://extensions.gnome.org/local/ but nothing is visible to show active extensions. After closing the https://extensions.gnome.org/local/ tab and re-visiting https://extensions.gnome.org/local/ the extensions are shown as stopped.
Related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1961721 At https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-32-gnome-shell-extensions-not-working/6667/3 we read: I have now read (should have done it before, my fault!) in the Gnome 3.36 release notes that extensions are now managed through the Extensions app; unfortunately this app is not installed by default in Fedora 32, and, if extensions are not enabled in the Extensions app, they are all disabled at every reboot (even if you turn them on through the browser plugin). If this is still the case for gnome '40' then I have reason to increase the severity. The failure of this `application`, the lack of functionality for the cli version and the removal of functionality from gnome-tweaks we cannot run extensions. This impacts the usability quite a bit.
`gnome-extensions` dumps core, BTW.
FWIW, dnf finds no problems between rpms except one unrelated one missing libsox.so.1. So what info is needed to find a root cause?
Furthermore we read at https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/gnome-shell-extensions-not-working/13698/11 : I think if you experience a Gnome Shell crash, all extensions are automatically disabled and need to be enabled manually the next time you run Gnome Shell. This causes a nice `loop` with the crashing of the gnome-extensions and gnome-extensions-app crashing. The lack of info from gnome-shell about what crashed (which extension), nor any choice offered by gnome-shell itself, the lack of stability ion the tools provided make the GUI experience kinda sad.
After updating to mozjs78-78.11.0-1.fc34.x86_64 I was able to run gnome-extensions-app and enable extensions.
