Bug#1052094: gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons-ng: needs update for GNOME Shell 45

[Simon McVittie]

Package: gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons-ng
Version: 46+really47.0.4-2
Severity: important
Tags: trixie sid upstream
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: gnome-shell-45

As with every 6-month GNOME Shell release cycle, extensions will need to
be updated for GNOME Shell 45, which is currently being prepared in
experimental. A porting guide is available here:
https://gjs.guide/extensions/upgrading/gnome-shell-45.html

For the 44 -> 45 transition, most or all extensions will need
incompatible code changes, because GNOME Shell has switched from
non-standard gjs modules ("const Foo = imports.gi.Foo") to ECMAScript
modules ("import Foo from 'gi://Foo'") and all extensions need to do
the same. This means most or all extensions will split into a branch
for Shell <= 44 (which might not be maintained upstream any more) and
a branch for Shell >= 45.

If not updated, this extension will have to be removed from testing for
the GNOME Shell 45 transition (I don't know when that will be). This
bug will be raised to serious severity when the transition is ready to
go ahead.

The upstream developer might already have made this change (I haven't
checked). If a new upstream version is compatible with Shell 45 but not
44, please upload to experimental for now.

Thanks,
