Here is a workaround for ubuntu 20.04:
1. remove gnome extension `sudo rm -r
/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/desktop-icons@csoriano/`
2. install nemo: see
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/158#alternative-solution and
replace `dnf` with `apt`.
Current gnome desktop-icons extension is useless because you just can't
interact with icons. I really don't get it how it came into an LTS
release... :-(
