Title:
GNOME extensions deactivated after lock unlock
Status in gnome-session:
New
Status in gnome-session package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Summary:
Lock then unlock GNOME session result in all GNOME extensions to be
deactivated. Intermittent bug.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install fresh Debian 8.8 Jessie
2. Using https://extensions.gnome.org install and activate all the following
extensions:
• https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/310/alt-tab-workspace/
[email protected] (version 10.0)
• https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/484/workspace-grid/
[email protected] (version 18.0)

[email protected] (version 26.0)
• https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1082/cpufreq/
cpufreq@konkor (version 12.0)
3. Lock GNOME session
4. Unlock GNOME session. Notice that all extensions are now
deactivated :( Expected result is that they should remaining activated
per their configuration.
5. Using "Tweak Tool"/"gnome-tweak-tool" re-activate all those
extensions. Restart GNOME by pressing "ALT-F2" keys, type "r", press
"Enter" key. The extensions are now working.
6. Lock GNOME session again
7. Unlock GNOME session again. Issue is reproduced again. All extensions are
deactivated. This bug is intermittent though. It depends on various factors,
including but not limited:
• Which extensions are activated
• Your personal configuration with "gnome-tweak-tool" and "gnome-session"
packages
8. This issue can also be reproduce with rebooting, instead of lock
and unlock the session. Same steps to reproduce as above. But simply
reboot.

Notes:
This bug was fixed in the package gnome-session - 3.9.90-0ubuntu16.1 with
that ticket comment #15 at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1385572/comments/15
So that ticket #1385572 is closed. But somehow this bug is back and reported
by others in tickets #1236749 and #1385572. Maybe a regression? Maybe a
zombie-bug, LOL ;) Anyhow I'm reopening this bug with this new ticket #1697229.
I would be happy to contribute testing
