Public bug reported: Availability ============
Currently in binNEW - synced from experimental. This is an arch:all package (no compilation; all JS), successfully built. Rationale ========= The desktop team would like to include Nautilus 3.30 in disco. However, Nautilus as of 3.28 - Ubuntu currently has 3.26 - drops support for having icons on the desktop. We'd like to keep this. The upstream team have provided a GNOME Shell extension to replace this functionality, which we want to ship. It is not "1.0" yet - we are working with upstream on iterating it. This package is a GNOME Shell extension written for 'gjs', i.e. in Javascript with GObject/GNOME support. It uses the standard GNOME libraries. Our intention is to work with upstream improve this extension over 'disco' and following cycles up to the next LTS; to that end we would like to include it in Ubuntu Desktop fairly early on, to identify and shake out any problems. Security ======== No known security issues, but this is a relatively new piece of software. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons (once accepted): https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+cve Quality assurance ================= Desktop is subscribed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/issues Dependencies ============ No binary universe dependencies Standards compliance ==================== 4.2.1, compat 11, dh rules Maintenance =========== We've packaged this as part of the Debian GNOME team, and we'll maintain it there. ** Affects: gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1806379 Title: [MIR] gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bug/1806379/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
