** Summary changed:

- Extension breaks when accessing Overview or applications list
+ Extension breaks when accessing Overview or applications list (Focal)

** Tags added: regression-release

** Description changed:

- Since the last boot, few minutes ago, anytime I open the gnome-shell's
- overview (using the super/win-key) or I just press on the "Show
- Applications" button on the panel, instead of opening the overlay
- correctly something weird happens and I cannot close it back in any way.
- The only workaround I found is to press Alt+F2 and press R to restart
- the shell (using Xorg).
+ This bug is quite disruptive, in fact, if this extension is installed
+ and active, it renders Gnome-Shell almost unusable.
+ 
+ This package used to work until recent Gnome-shell updates, which
+ changed some API.
+ 
+ I suggest either backporting the current Groovy package or cherry-
+ picking the fix to focal.
+ 
+ This package is clearly broken in this status, so my opinion is that
+ backporting the Groovy package can not worsen the situation. I'm using
+ it for some days and it works perfectly like before the breaking gnome-
+ shell update.

+ --- Original Description ---
+ 
+ 
+ Since the last boot, few minutes ago, anytime I open the gnome-shell's 
overview (using the super/win-key) or I just press on the "Show Applications" 
button on the panel, instead of opening the overlay correctly something weird 
happens and I cannot close it back in any way. The only workaround I found is 
to press Alt+F2 and press R to restart the shell (using Xorg).
  
  If I disable the extension, everything works correctly, so I think it to
  be culprit.
  
  What happens when I try to get the overlay and it gets stuck? You can
  see the attached screenshot. Note the name of the window on the top
  right, it appears as soon as I trigger the overview, like if the overlay
  was open but the window was not getting resized. If I try to drag the
  window, an animation shows like if the overview was correctly working,
  but nothing works.
