GNOME Shell 3.36.x (currently in experimental, but should be heading to
unstable soon) has a new gnome-shell-extension-prefs package that separates
out the extension preferences app. It's also available as a Flatpak.
gnome-tweaks used to be the place to configure extensions, so it should
probably have a Recommends on gnome-shell-extension-prefs.
The shell extensions tweak group has:
def _on_configure_clicked(self, btn, uuid):
execute_subprocess(['gnome-shell-extension-prefs', uuid], block=False)
which will not work since GNOME Shell 3.36.1, because the way extension
preferences work has been redone to accommodate the g-s-extension-prefs
app being installed via Flatpak or similar.
One way to solve this would be to remove the extensions support (upstream
#272, !50).
Or, if the extensions support is still desired, the new way to load an
extension's prefs seems to be a D-Bus call:
Gio.DBus.session.call(
'org.gnome.Shell.Extensions',
'/org/gnome/Shell/Extensions',
'org.gnome.Shell.Extensions',
'OpenExtensionPrefs',
new GLib.Variant('(ssa{sv})', [uuid, parentWindow, options]),
null,
Gio.DBusCallFlags.NONE,
-1,
null);
(That's Javascript code from GNOME Shell, but the equivalent Python code
should be fairly similar.)
