[Pkg-owncloud-maintainers] Bug#1037411: nautilus-owncloud: menu doesn't appear due to nautilus API changes

[Micha Moskovic]

Package: nautilus-owncloud
Version: 2.11.0.8354+dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable
X-Debbugs-Cc: michamos at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

The version of nautilus shipped in bookworm has a different API from
what is expected by the shell extension in the nautilus-owncloud
package. The sync status icons are correctly displayed, but the owncloud
menu doesn't appear, making this package essentially unusable.

When starting nautilus, the following error is displayed:

TypeError: MenuExtension_ownCloud.get_file_items() missing 1 required positional argument: 'files'

The bug has been fixed in https://github.com/owncloud/client/pull/10075
and would need to be backported to the stable package version. It looks
like some work was done in
https://salsa.debian.org/owncloud-team/owncloud-client/-/merge_requests/2
but never completed.

Best regards,
Micha
