--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-shell Version: 3.14.4-1~deb8u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? occured two days after installing Debian DVD-1. I did not try viewing the gnome-shell version beforehand, so I have no idea whether this has to do with my installation or not * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? "gnome-shell --replace" mostly works, but does not fix the bug and gives the following output: "Gjs-Message: JS LOG: Failed to launch ibus-daemon: Failed to execute child process "ibus-daemon" (No such file or directory) Gjs-Message: JS WARNING: [/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/launch-new-insta...@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com/extension.js 9]: assignment to undeclared variable _activateOriginal (gnome-shell:2157): Gjs-WARNING **: JS ERROR: Exception in callback for signal: startup-complete: Error: Requiring GSystem, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'GSystem' (any version) not found _initializeUI/<@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/main.js:216 _emit@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/signals.js:124 LayoutManager<._startupAnimationComplete@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/layout.js:704 wrapper@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/lang.js:169 _addHandler/params[name]@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/tweener.js:91 _callOnFunction@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/tweener/tweener.js:203 _updateTweenByIndex@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/tweener/tweener.js:333 _updateTweens@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/tweener/tweener.js:345 _onEnterFrame@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/tweener/tweener.js:360 _emit@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/signals.js:124 ClutterFrameTicker<._onNewFrame@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/tweener.js:208 wrapper@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/lang.js:169 ClutterFrameTicker<._init/<@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/tweener.js:183" * What was the outcome of this action? a large error message * What outcome did you expect instead? a fixed gnome-shell *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gnome-shell depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-back 0.22.0-1 ii evolution-data-server 3.12.9~git20141128.5242b0-2+deb8u2 ii gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 0.6.37-3+b1 ii gir1.2-atspi-2.0 2.14.0-1 ii gir1.2-caribou-1.0 0.4.15-1 ii gir1.2-clutter-1.0 1.20.0-1 ii gir1.2-freedesktop 1.42.0-2.2 ii gir1.2-gcr-3 3.14.0-2 ii gir1.2-gdesktopenums-3.0 3.14.1-1 ii gir1.2-gdm3 3.14.1-7 ii gir1.2-gkbd-3.0 3.6.0-1 ii gir1.2-glib-2.0 1.42.0-2.2 ii gir1.2-gnomebluetooth-1.0 3.14.0-2 ii gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0 3.14.1-1 ii gir1.2-gtk-3.0 3.14.5-1 ii gir1.2-ibus-1.0 1.5.9-1 ii gir1.2-mutter-3.0 3.14.4-1~deb8u1 ii gir1.2-networkmanager-1.0 0.9.10.0-7 ii gir1.2-nmgtk-1.0 0.9.10.0-2 ii gir1.2-pango-1.0 1.36.8-3 ii gir1.2-polkit-1.0 0.105-8 ii gir1.2-soup-2.4 2.48.0-1 ii gir1.2-telepathyglib-0.12 0.24.1-1 ii gir1.2-telepathylogger-0.2 0.8.1-1 ii gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0 0.99.1-3.2 ii gjs 1.42.0-1 ii gnome-backgrounds 3.14.1-1 ii gnome-icon-theme-symbolic 3.12.0-1 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.14.2-3 ii gnome-shell-common 3.14.4-1~deb8u1 ii gnome-themes-standard 3.14.2.2-1 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.14.1-1 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.14.0-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.14.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libcairo2 1.14.0-2.1 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-2.1 ii libcanberra0 0.30-2.1 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.20.0-1 ii libcogl-pango20 1.18.2-3 ii libcogl20 1.18.2-3 ii libcroco3 0.6.8-3+b1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.102-1 ii libecal-1.2-16 3.12.9~git20141128.5242b0-2+deb8u2 ii libedataserver-1.2-18 3.12.9~git20141128.5242b0-2+deb8u2 ii libgcr-base-3-1 3.14.0-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+deb8u2 ii libgirepository-1.0-1 1.42.0-2.2 ii libgjs0e [libgjs0-libmozjs-24-0] 1.42.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.4.4-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.14.5-1 ii libical1a 1.0-1.3 ii libjson-glib-1.0-0 1.0.2-1 ii libmozjs-24-0 24.2.0-2 ii libmutter0e 3.14.4-1~deb8u1 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.10.0-7 ii libnm-util2 0.9.10.0-7 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpolkit-agent-1-0 0.105-8 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-8 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 5.0-13 ii libpulse0 5.0-13 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18-1+b1 ii libstartup-notification0 0.12-4 ii libsystemd0 215-17+deb8u1 ii libtelepathy-glib0 0.24.1-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-3 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.1-2+b2 ii mutter 3.14.4-1~deb8u1 ii python 2.7.9-1 ii telepathy-mission-control-5 1:5.16.3-1 Versions of packages gnome-shell recommends: ii gdm3 3.14.1-7 ii gkbd-capplet 3.6.0-1 ii gnome-contacts 3.14.1-1 ii gnome-control-center 1:3.14.2-3 ii gnome-user-guide 3.14.1-1 ii unzip 6.0-16 gnome-shell suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
