It's that time of year again: a new GNOME Shell release has changed the
API presented to extensions, and therefore requires changes in GNOME
Shell extensions.
Upstream provides a migration guide at
<https://gjs.guide/extensions/upgrading/gnome-shell-50.html>, and for
this particular extension it seems that the Ubuntu team has already done
a port to GNOME 50 APIs.
GNOME Shell 50.0 is currently available from experimental. If the
changes that are necessary for GNOME 50 are backwards-compatible with
GNOME 49, please upload them to unstable, similar to what was done for
gnome-shell-extension-arc-menu. If not, please upload them to
experimental to start with, and then re-upload to unstable when the
GNOME 50 transition begins, similar to what was done for
src:gnome-shell-extensions.
When the rest of the necessary packages are ready and the release team
gives the go-ahead to do the transition, bug reports like this one will
be raised to serious.
Thanks,
