Package: gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-panel
Version: 68-1
Severity: minor
/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/metadata.json
says the version is 9999, not 68.
It looks like the extension tracks the version in the dconf key
/org/gnome/shell/extensions/dash-to-panel/extension-version, and
whenever it changes, it shows a notification with a link to the release
page on GitHub. To test, I reset the dconf key, then disabled and
re-enabled the extension. Since the version in Debian is wrong, the link
is broken:
https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel/releases/tag/v9999
At a glance, it looks like
https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel/blob/8100935336c7a4a740123f19790a546fc19f2b62/Makefile#L109-L113
is the code that upstream uses to set the version in metadata.json.
