I rebooted multiple times and no luck. Here are the steps I followed :
- Used sudo apt remove gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons to uninstall - Deleted the folder $HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/desktop- icons@csoriano - Rebooted and verified it is gone all together from tweaks - Downloaded the .zip patch file and placed in a local directory - Rerean the Meson/Ninja commands and verified that the .local folder was recreated (I did not get any errors) - Rebooted again. At this point I still do not have desktop icons as a choice at all in Tweaks -> extensions. If I go to the website (https://extensions.gnome.org/) then it is not listed in the installed extensions list. If I search for it and try to turn it on with the web page I get a message that says "Can't install "desktop-icons@csoriano" : This is an extension enabled by your current mode, you can't install manually any update in that session" So basically I am stuck with no option to turn it back on. I suspect I can just run sudo apt install and readd that way, but it will be the same /usr install.
