This doesn't sound like a bug at all. You have two different things
installed which are both designed to display the same desktop icons.
Unfortunately there is no way to disable the desktop icons with the
default Ubuntu gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons. So that's the real
issue.
I am going to close this bug because it is not a valid bug. If you would
like to open a new bug requesting a feature to be able to disable all of
gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons then feel free. That's definitely
sorely missing right now.

Title:
Doubled desktop icons
Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I customized my icons by changing the folder image. That worked fine
in Ubuntu 18.04.
When I upgraded to 19.04 my customized icons no longer showed the new
image, and to fix that I did... something. Install Nemo deskop, I
think, but I can't find a configuration or uninstall option for it.
Then the old icons with the customized images worked fine... but now
the folders have a doubles that are "dummies" (not working -- not
customized -- don't respond to being clicked).
In the Gnome Tweak Took Desktop icons is "off" but the toggle for
"Desktop Icons Switch" has an ! meaning can't be turned on or off.
I'm moderately techy in Windows, but still pretty stupid about Linux,
sorry. But I can probably run tests, find logs, paste commands into
Terminal Window or whatever.
THANKS!!!
