Gnome extensions suddenly disabled after a reboot

#1 Post by theprez »

Hello,

I run debian 12 stable with gnome 43.9 and wayland, pretty basic.
Today I log in and all my extensions are disabled. I cannot enable them back from the 'Extensions' settings (greyed out button). If I re-install them their 'enable' button is still grey.
I tried removing ~/.cache/gnome* then reboot, to no avail.

org.gnome.shell disable-user-extensions in dconf is set to 'false' .

What should I do? This makes the DE impossible to use for me as I need the tray icons.

Hi. No need to bump. Different timezones, etc.... somebody will answer.

That pastebin is empty.

Can you give us the names of the specific extensions?

Is it the gnome-shell-extension-appindicator extension? Is that package still installed?

What about gnome-shell-extension-manager or gnome-shell-extensions and gnome-shell-extensions-extra?

Are you using backports?

Hello,
Sorry about the bump and pastebin that must have expired.

Please find attached the gnome-logs.
Is it the gnome-shell-extension-appindicator extension? Is that package still installed?
The extension I tried to install is https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/ ... r-support/ . I submitted logs without the apt package installed, just the extension from the website.
I then tried to add the apt package, but the extension would not show in 'Extensions' menu.

As for the other extensions, even the built-in ones I cannot enable, therefore I doubt the issue could come from the extensions themselves. If you still think it's valuable info i'll submit a full list.

What about gnome-shell-extension-manager or gnome-shell-extensions and gnome-shell-extensions-extra?
I have gnome-shell-extensions 43.1-1 only.

I do not use backports.
