Reproduced (unintentionally) on noble after I removed the GNOME
Characters and a couple of other GNOME packages and replaced them with
flatpaks. Fixed by installing the native gjs package.
Extensions opens a window with unselectable text,
Something's gone wrong
We're very sorry, but it was not possible to get the list of installed
extensions. Make sure you are logged into GNOME and try again.

Title:
gnome-shell does not contain gjs dependence
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Hi, I updated from Ubuntu 22.04 to Ubuntu 22.10 and I had an issue
with GNOME shell "Extensions" app.
I replaced "Extensions" (gnome-shell-extension-prefs) with Flatpak
version of it from Flathub using GNOME "Software" center.
After this, I'm not sure, I might have used the "sudo apt auto-remove"
command.
After these changes, Flatpak version of the "Extensions" app gave an
error: (https://github.com/flathub/org.gnome.Extensions/issues/13)
After a bit of digging, I realized removing "Extensions" packages also
removes gjs dependence. So I installed gjs package and "Extensions"
works again.
1) OS
OS: Ubuntu 22.10
Desktop: GNOME
2) Package
gnome-shell: 43.0-1ubuntu2
gnome-shell-extension-prefs: 43.0-1ubuntu2
3) What you expected to happen
Removing the package and installing Flatpak version without any error.
4) What happened instead
I replaced the app with Flatpak version and it removed gjs and gnome-
shell extension support.
