Taking this review.

Comment 4 Neal Gompa 2026-02-14 01:13:13 UTC
Initial spec review:

> Requires:       gnome-shell >= 46

This should be using the new dependency generator stuff now by adding "BuildRequires: gnome-shell-rpm-generators", but I just tried it with https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gnome-shell-extension-background-logo/pull-request/4 and it's not working.

At least for now, this should manually synthesize the Provides and Requires in the form the depgen does: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gnome-shell-rpm-generators/blob/rawhide/f/gnome_shell.attr

> %{_datadir}/gnome-shell/extensions/%{uuid}

This should have a trailing slash so that it's always obvious this is a folder.

Comment 5 Carl George 🎩 2026-03-01 03:26:20 UTC
> This should be using the new dependency generator stuff

I intentionally only want to set a lower bound.  This allows for users to easily test the extension with a newer GNOME version by setting the dconf key /org/gnome/shell/disable-extension-version-validation to true.  And if they don't set that, they can still disable the extension without uninstalling it and proceed with system upgrades.  When a future update adds compatibility they can observe in the Extensions app that the warning icon goes away and they can enable it again.

Beyond just using the extension, this capability is highly beneficial for collaboration with upstream.  It makes it easy to report to upstream that the extension works on new versions of GNOME (so they just need to update metadata.json), or that it doesn't work with the corresponding error message.

Both of those aspects, combined with the quick six month cadence of new GNOME versions, makes the generator untenable to me.  Since it's not required by the guidelines, I'll pass on this.

> This should have a trailing slash

This is also not required by the guidelines, and is just a personal preference, so I'll pass on this one too.


Are there any review-blocking items?

Meh, sure. I think you should do something to acknowledge it needs to be a directory, but a strict reading doesn't indicate one way or another.

Everything else about this is gravy now...

* Licensing is correct
* Package builds and installs
* No serious rpmlint issues

PACKAGE APPROVED.
