This is due to the fact that it's not possible anymore to override the shell verifier from a GNOME extension. In particular, AWS's Amazon DCV requires an extension in order to login, and this does not work anymore in GNOME 46: - https://github.com/aws/dcv-gnome-shell-extension Without this extension, the shell native authenticator can't be bypassed in AWS installations when the web authentication has validated the user credentials. [ Test case ] To verify that the the function can be overridden, a new symbol has to be exported. Use the gnome shell looking glass (Alt+F2 -> 'lg' -> Enter) and paste this code: import('../gdm/authPrompt.js').then(m => Main.notify("Found", `${m.AuthPrompt.prototype._createUserVerifier ?? false}`)) A notification should be shown with the function code, while it should not contain the word "false" only. This can also be verified installing the extension https://github.com/aws/dcv-gnome-shell-extension and it should load without errors in the journal [ Regression potential ] It's just a simple abstraction of few lines of code, so potential is very low, but potentially the GDM user verifier (and so the user list) may not be loaded.
