This message is just to say thank you for all the support to the ubuntu

Vlad, honestly, I don't see this getting fixed anytime soon, this has
been an issue since a late revision of 18.10/19.04 (~2018).
Pinning is a time-tested solution for regressions but it does come with
overhead, especially when the issue is actually a dependency of a core
system component
You're failing to understand the concept of "show-stopper" bug, also known as
"ship-stopper".
The severity of such a bug is so big, that the whole release a product must be
postponed, until the bug is fixed. Bugs of this kind are ones that
substantially compromise the usability of a product.
Claiming that Ubuntu could simply have stuck with the previous version
of GNOME when shipping the LTS release is failing to see the forest for
the trees. Many factors go into the decision of what version of a
critical package like GNOME to put in a release. Ubuntu looked at all of
those factors
Hi Jonathan,
I'm happy to start a dialogue about this issue.
1. It's great to hear that the problem will be fixed in 21.04. Maybe a
backport to the 20.04 LTS should be considered as well?
2. I know, I don't have problems with fixing things by myself, per se.
I'm irritated that this was not a
Three notes:
1. Ubuntu has addressed this in 21.04 by shipping gnome-shell-extension-
desktop-icons-ng by default.
2. Note that you can fix this yourself in any earlier version of Ubuntu
by installing that extension directly from extensions.gnome.org (
Guys, this is a *BRUTAL* regression. It's NOT acceptable to break the
desktop experience like that in a LTS release because "the legacy code
was unmaintainable". Either replace the legacy code with a mature, well-
written extension which works *exactly* the same way, or continue to
maintain the

need to be able to remove the extension package in order to replace it.
Installing any extension locally for your own account will override the
