I checked /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions and I don't have any extensions
there (apt purge gnome-shell-extensions*). I also tried moving the folder
~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions to .. and gnome-shell in gdm3 still
won't start (just in case gdm3's gnome-shell actually uses that folder). I
can't login to gnome-shell since gdm3 doesn't show the login screen since
gnome-shell in gdm3 doesn't start.

I also tried debsums to check for corrupted files, and found none related
to gnome-shell.

I'm planning to reinstall all gnome-shell related packages to see if that
fixes it.

Thank you for your help.
