Public bug reported: First reported here https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/installing-just-one- extension-makes-ubuntu-eoan-to-fail/12816
Steps 1. I tried first to disabled default Desktop Icons extension(1) 2. I installed "Desktop Icons NG" from https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/2087/desktop-icons-ng-ding/ 3. Tested the extension was properly working (DnD, open folders) OK 4. Opened the Activity view: stuck in this view At this stage there is no way to exit from the activity view. Arrow keys work fine for moving the selection on open window, search works fine as well, but pressing Enter key does nothing, as well as clicking on the close window X does not kill the windows. Logging out is the only way to recover, until Activity view is opened again. Reproduced on Eoan in a VM, while it is not reproducible on Fedora 29 (currently I can't test the latest fedora, but the original report made more tests and it seems reproducible in Eoan only). This extension provides some more common features for desktop icons, so it is likely to be installed more in the future. Note: 1. The default desktop icons extension looks always disabled (GNOME tweaks switch is off), even if it's actually working, so I just switched the visibility of the icons off from default Desktop Icons settings. This very likely did not disable the extension, but it's likely what a normal user would do.
